A NYPD officer was forced to make a split-second decision early this morning after a low-life thug charged at her.
As The New York Post reported, the parents of a 29-year-old man called the NYPD to their apartment in Queens at roughly 12:25 a.m.
When the parents and cops entered the apartment, they could not find the young man. Then, when they left the residence, the son appeared, and chaos erupted.
Per the Post, here is how the incident unfolded:
As the parents and two officers left the apartment, they saw the man standing in the hallway holding a boxcutter.
The man’s father got into a fight with his son, who was ordered to drop his weapon multiple times by officers and refused to do so.
One officer Tasered the man, who then charged at them with his boxcutter, as his father hid behind the two officers.
The second officer then shot him when he refused to drop the blade.
The man was transported to Jamaica Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.
Police understandably did not release the names of the officers involved in the shooting.
Once communist Zohran Mamdani officially takes over as mayor, expect crime to skyrocket. He has already made several disturbing moves that will result in more dangerous incidents like this and more criminals returning to the streets.
For example, he pledged at the Queens Community House last week that under his rule, police will “no longer” be the primary responders to calls related to “a homelessness crisis” or “a mental health crisis.”
Mamdani has also vowed to stop sweeps of homeless camps, which were instituted during outgoing Mayor Eric Adams’ reign.
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani says it will create a ” ticking time bomb.” Giuliani notes that many of the homeless on the NYC streets are “paranoid schizophrenics” who get worse and violent in isolation.
“The therapy… is constant talking, constant bringing them out,” Giuliani explained. “So think about it, the more they go inward, that’s how they go from being a relatively safe person that first goes into homelessness to a killer five weeks later, five months later.”
“So he (Mamdani) is going to produce possibly the most dangerous thing a New York mayor has ever done.”
