Jersey City police officer Marc DiNardo, who was shot in the face by a shooting suspect last week, is in "extremely critical condition." DiNardo, 37, is part of the Emergency Service Unit; he and other officers had been staking out the apartment of Hassian Hosendove (aka Hassian Shakur) and his wife Amanda Anderson. Hosendove and Anderson emerged from their apartment last Thursday, wearing hooded robes, and fired at police officers; the pair were eventually killed in the ensuing gunfight—an autopsy says Hosendove was shot 19 times and Anderson once. The other officer who had been in critical condition, Michael Camacho, was upgraded and able to leave the Intensive Care Unit. Camacho was shot in the neck and is now is "serious but guarded" condition.
