Two NYPD cops shot in Brooklyn

The officers followed the suspect and radioed for help, Bratton said, with officers responding from the 81st and 83rd precincts and Public Service Area 3.

Bratton said the two officers heard a gunshot near the intersection of Quincy Street and Malcolm X Boulevard.

The suspect is a 34-year-old male who is at Brookdale Hospital in critical condition.

They say Funes pointed a gun at officers, sped off and then crashed his auto into a police vehicle.

The suspect rammed into a marked patrol auto while traveling the wrong way at the corner of Lexington Avenue and Malcolm X Boulevard. From there, the shootout began between the responding officers and Funes.

Reddin underwent surgery at Kings County Hospital and was in stable condition while Yurkiw was released after receiving treatment for a blunt force injury.

Two NYPD officers were shot early Saturday in Brooklyn, according to sources.

Police said both injured officers – who were in street clothes – are in stable condition and are expected to recover.

“The bottom line today: Thank God, these officers will be making a full recovery”, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said during a press conference, according to the New York Daily News.

The injured officers were the third and fourth NY policemen shot and wounded while on duty during the past month. The officers were in an unmarked police auto. Investigators are looking into his ties to other people suspected of being radicalized, a law enforcement official said.

At that point officers fired at the armed suspect, striking him several times.

Funes’s record also includes 11 arrests in IL between 1996 and 2000. The investigation into the police-involved shooting incident ongoing.

Yurkiw was shot in his bulletproof vest – 27 years after a vest saved his father, Officer Paul Yurkiw. More than 30 shots were fired by six NYPD officers. Yurkiw, 29, has been an officer for three years.
