.jennamdeangelis has the latest on the officer shot in Brooklyn while responding to a domestic dispute.
A large police presence remained at the scene.
Two uniformed officers were responding to the 911 call at an apartment building on Gates Avenue around 8:30 a.m. Police officers met the man and woman in front of the building. The man was informed he was being taken into custody for criminal mischief - namely damaging the wall. Police say as they tried to take him into custody, a struggle ensued, and an officer was shot in the foot by the suspect's gun. Responding officers spotted him on Monroe Street, where gunfire was exchanged. The suspect was hit twice in the thigh. "He answered a call for help. He is a 7-year veteran officer. He is a husband and a father, and thankfully he will recover," Sewell said.
"Let's be clear... because of [the injured officer and his partner's] actions, we have a dangerous person off our street. We have an illegal gun off our street," Adams said. Police identified the suspect as Raheen Joye, 41. They say he has 17 prior arrests in Georgia between 1998 and 2014. Police say two are noteworthy arrests involving weapons. Adams said the injured officer is expected to go home today.
