• Manhunt Underway for Two Suspects Who Shot and Wounded Two NYPD Officers in the Bronx

    The New York Police Department cannot seem to go more than a day without grabbing another negative headline one way or another. Sadly, on Monday night, Jan. 5, two plainclothes officers were shot while responding to a robbery call shortly after their shift had ended. The two, along with three other officers, thought they spotted the suspects who were connected to a Bronx grocery store robbery. When they got out of their vehicle, a shoot-out began with both officers ending up with injuries that are not life-threatening. There is currently a manhunt underway for both suspects, who stole and later ditched a white Camaro.While everyone is relieved that these officers have a good prognosis, this is just another dangerous incident to end up on top of the pile. After two Brooklyn officers were assassinated while having lunch in their patrol car a few weeks ago, it changed everything for the NYPD. It had previously felt as though Mayor Bill de Blasio had abandoned them by allowing protests to take place all over the city following the news that there would be no indictment in the chokehold death of Eric Garner. The NYPD feels that rather than working together for the safety of the city, he and City Hall instead made things more difficult.Once those two officers were killed, the NYPD started protesting de Blasio by turning their backs to him, and it has been downhill from there. Now with two more officers down, the NYPD still does not feel support from City Hall and believes that de Blasio helped add additional strain to the divide between protesters and police. Another double shooting was the last situation that either side needed to have to face now.
