“Daily Telegraph in UK is reporting that the other wounded may have been hit by stray bullets from the responding Police officers.”

I would almost bet on it, NY cops have no trigger control, I remember on incident where they shot an unarmed guy 72 times or rather shot at him 72 times, don’t remember how many times that they actually hit the guy. If the perp had a .45 he’s got around 8 shots, most cops carry high-cap magazines with 15 shots so the likelihood is that cops were wildly spraying and praying (most likely from cover so that their aim was even worse than normal but at least THEY were not at risk). Should make cops go back to a 6 shooter .38 special so they’re more careful about shot placement.
