Re: NY detective killed by so called "friendly fire"
One officer dead, another shot in the leg, and the bad guys gun was fake. Someone needs more / better firearms training. I'm struggling to picture how that went down.
Detective Brian Simonsen, a 19-year veteran of the force, was fatally shot in the chest after officers opened fire on a robbery suspect who appeared to be armed. Another officer, Sgt. Matthew Gorman, suffered a gunshot wound to the leg and is recovering at the hospital.
