The 29-year-old armed man allegedly refused to drop his gun before four officers opened fire, killing him.
Updated 20 mins agoPolice in New York City shot and killed a man allegedly armed with a firearm who refused to drop the weapon at the command of officers, NYPD officials said Sunday.
The shooting followed some sort of dispute that attracted uniformed officers in the Bronx around 3 a.m. near Dyckman Street and Nagle Avenue, NYPD Chief of Patrol Jeff Maddrey stated. Four officers approached the Inwood corner where they reportedly saw a man"with a gun in his hand" fighting in the crowd, Maddrey said. Officers allegedly gave multiple commands for the man to drop the gun, which police said were ignored.
The officers then fired at the man, striking the 29-year-old multiple times. Officials said he was taken to a hospital, but did not survive his injuries.
