There is outcry and growing criticism of the NYPD after a police shooting in the subway system on Sunday left one bystander in critical condition. The suspect is also in critical condition. An officer and one other bystander were also hurt.
The family of the bystander hit by police gunfire calls the action of cops reckless and they’re demanding to see the bodycam video.
Officials laid out a detailed timeline, explaining that NYPD officers had not one, but two interactions with the suspect, 37-year-old Derell Mickles at the Sutter Avenue train station.
NYPD officials provide new details on the Brooklyn subway shooting that happened on Sunday afternoon.
Wednesday night, the family of critically injured bystander Gregory Delpeche, along with angry protestors, spoke out in Union Square. They then moved from Union Square to Washington Square Park.
They jumped the subway turnstiles to bring attention to what they say was a reckless reaction by the NYPD for shooting a man over doing the same thing. Sixteen people were arrested.
