A New York Police Department officer with over six years of service was shot dead in the Bronx early Sunday, authorities said.
Brian Mulkeen, a 33-year-old member of The Bronx Anti-Crime Unit, was investigating gang activity, including recent shootings with two other officers at about 12:30 a.m. Sunday, NYPD said.
The officers got out of their vehicle to question a man, who then fled, and the officers gave chase. As the officers tried to apprehend the suspect, a violent struggle on the ground began, NYPD Chief of Department Terence Monahan said.
In body-worn camera, Mulkeen can be heard yelling "He's reaching for it. He's reaching for it," Monahan said.
