The Yonkers police chief says the officer involved is a member of the FBI Westchester County Safe Streets task force, a unit that works to cut down on gun violence. The police chief says the officer, who was shot in the stomach, has 27 years with the Yonkers Police Department.
Two police sources say the officer involved is Brian Menton, a decorated officer who was set to retire next week. The task force engaged with the suspects in front of the bodega, authorities say. The suspects then went inside the bodega. It's believed that the only shots fired by law enforcement came from the FBI agent.
Police say Menton was taken to NYC Health + Hospitals/Jacobi. The police chief says Menton was not wearing a body cam because he is a member of the task force.Police say two illegal guns were recovered at the scene. They also have a number of suspects in custody.
