NY: Off Duty Officer Shoots, Kills 1 of 2 Robbery Suspects

It happened around 10:35 p.m. at a gas station at 914 Remsen Ave.

Police said the off-duty officer was siting in his car getting gas pumped into his vehicle by the station attendant when two armed men approached.

One of the armed men entered the station attendant’s booth and demanded money from a worker while the second man remained outside and told the off-duty officer and the gas station attendant not to move.

A loaded .44-caliber revolver was recovered at the scene.

“As the two suspects exited the gas station, the off-duty officer identified himself as a police officer and gave them verbal commands to stop. The two suspects turned around towards the officer with the guns in their hands,” NYPD Chief of Patrol Rodney Harrison said.
