NYPD cop shoots suspect attempting to flee in stolen vehicle, officials say

A New York City Police Department officer shot a driver during a pursuit involving a stolen silver Kia Sportage in the Bronx. The vehicle had been reported stolen from the Bronx and was tracked using license plate readers. Officers tried to stop the driver, but the individual allegedly reversed the car, striking several officers and an unmarked police vehicle before moving forward and hitting another officer. As the driver attempted to flee, an officer fired from atop a nearby vehicle, striking the driver. Both the driver and the injured officers were taken to the hospital in stable condition. The suspect has a history of criminal charges, including a February arrest for shooting another person and being charged with multiple felonies such as attempted felony assault and reckless endangerment.
