Two Police Officers Shot During Brooklyn Traffic Stop

I dunno, I went to the Post site before and it stated the officer died earlier this afternoon.

why would they do something like that?

Hey, I see you and the NY Post have killed NYPD Officer Timoshenko.

Great reporting, kids!!!!

Yes, the poor guy MAY very well be dead in the next 24 hours.

But still ... this is reporting 101, something I guess they don't teach you where you're from.

When it comes to someone's life, and you're reporting on it, don't prematurely bury the guy.

And offer a correction. Even the dirty diggers at the Post did so.

It was no nigger for sure.

Man, it's not enough for these people to steal - they need to kill also? Where's Sharpton??

It wasn't Lefferts Gardens in the 60's... It has been since 1979, and SoHo wasn't SoHo in the 20's. Come on.

this is fucking scary.

this is near my house. ugh...summertime in the "ghetto" has arrived.

This is an absolute disgrace. These two young men are fighting for their lives after an ambush and the Mayor uses it to make points and the black community leaders are dormant because they can't make any political hay.

It was not Lefferts Gardens back when I lived there in the 60's when Medgar Evers was still Brooklyn Prep......

The type of car that was involved has absolutely nothing to do with it.

#12 and #14,

He already did. . . look at #1

A real man's car? Yeah a man who has to make up for his lack of balls. A man who is so self-obcessed that he doesn't care about the world, only himself.

SUV's are for A-holes. If you drive one you are one.

end of story.

[i]Isn't crown heights one of the mayor's Impact Zones?[/i]

Impact is almost dead, due to the low number of cops on patrol.

And the SUV was stolen, Reality Czech.

Don't let a real man's car scare you, you tights wearing Lance Armstrong wannabe sissy.

Why not ask Al Sharpton yourself? He has a radio program, where he comments on shootings like this daily.

Yet another A-hole in an SUV. Those vehicles attract idiots like white on rice.

I dance my lord of the dance jig.

Karma does not gloat. It just is.

Look in your Karma mirror, my friend.

I'm waiting for the "I dance an Irish jig whenever.." fellow.

What a tragedy.

I am waiting for the karma police asshole to chime in on this one...

Prospect Lefferts Gardens?????????

what in the wide wide world of sports?

Live right around the corner from Rogers and Lefferts. Cop cars everywhere. They had Sterling Street blocked off so cars couldn't enter. Helicopters were zooming around.

PS -- The neighborhood is Prospect Lefferts Gardens, NOT Crown Heights.

UGH...Its actually prospect lefferts garden not crown heights. I heard or was abruptly woken by the shots last night. Feel sickened this morning to know that it was two police officers, my neighborhood police officers. After a weekend of having a friends purse stolen in the city and now this...the safety I felt in our city is seriously waning.

Isn't crown heights one of the mayor's Impact Zones?

Impact zone = flood the area with cops.

How bout diverting some of the manpower surrounding their compound and putting it to real good use.

Horrible situation, my thoughts are with the wounded cops.

I hope they catch these guys.

Waiting for Al Sharpton comment...

sad

What's up with the plug for the "ever low crime rate" during an announcement like this? Real classy, Mike.

Here's hoping there's no blackout this week, even ConEd can't guarantee there won't be any disruptions.

This is some crazy week and dare I say the "K" word?

Krazee.
