'We lost a hero this evening.' New York City police officer, Brian Mulkeen, shot and killed during a struggle with a man he was trying to arrest early Sunday. The suspect was also killed.
In this photo provided by the New York City Police Department, a hand gun recovered at the scene of a shooting sits on the pavement in the area where New York City police officer Brian Mulkeen was shot and killed early in the morning Sunday, Sept. 29, 2019, in the Bronx borough of New York. Mulkeen and his partner tried to apprehend a man who had fled questioning, and a struggle on the ground ensued. Mulkeen was struck by multiple bullets.
“We lost a hero this evening,” Mayor Bill de Blasio said at a glum news conference outside Jacobi Medical Center. As the men wrestled, Mulkeen’s body camera recorded him saying “He’s reaching for it! He’s reaching for it!” Mulkeen had served nearly seven years with the department and worked out of the 47th precinct. He lived with his girlfriend, an NYPD police officer in the Bronx’s 44th precinct.
