NYPD cop critically injured after being shot in the head
The New York Post ^ | May 2, 2015 | By Larry Celona and Jamie Schram

Posted on 05/02/2015 6:05:32 PM PDT by NYRepublican72

An NYPD cop was shot in the head and chest and critically wounded in Queens on Saturday.

The anti-crime officer worked out of the 105th Precinct in Queens Village and was on duty when he was hit at around 6:15 p.m. It was not clear whether he was in uniform – anti-crime officers often do plainclothes patrols.

A suspect was initially believed to be holed up in a nearby building at 212th Street and 104th Avenue. Police sent hostage negotiaters to try to talk him out – only to discover it was a false tip.

The search has now expanded.

The cop, described as a four-year veteran who is not married, was rushed to Jamaica Hospital in a radio car. He was responding to a report of a person with a gun.

Indeed, he is in my PRAYERS.

We can remember what our country was like when our leaders asked God to lead them.

And we see what it’s like now, when they don’t.

You are correct.....the book called Circle of Six recounts that case incredibly well from the eyes of the detective who investigated it.

Anybody can learn a lot about how politics and police work intersect and be both entertained and angered while reading this book.....

Circle if Six by Randy Jurgenson.

The liberals that aren’t cheering on twitter are trying to say he was plainclothes so nobody knew he was a cop. (Trying to claim he was undercover)

Sounds to me like he was known in the neighborhood and plain clothes is his uniform.

Its horrible what these cops have to deal with every day, protecting people yet being spit upon and wished death upon every single day as they try to save lives

De Blasio hasn’t helped either.

“Libtards don’t understand that.”

They certainly do and they love when cops are impugned, maligned and dare one say injured?

IMHO

The toolbag that shot the cop was a con with a laundry list of crimes that he committed. I am sure he knew what he was doing. Whether the cop was plaincothed or not is irrelevant.

Believe me, they know who the cops are, regardless of what they’re wearing.

Obama has essentially empowered these attacks not only on whites (and we don’t know whether the officer was white or black or other), but on the whole structure of a society governed by law.

I make cops my friend. We have 4 sheriff’s deputies assigned to my township and I know all of them by name.

This assignment is a prized assignment because we’re virtually crime free.

My gf is telling me they caught the POS. 20 to 1 he’s Amish or Hassidic. Or a Mormon mad about that play.

Like that muslim movie that caused Benghazi. /s
