PIX11 News: A New York City police officer and a man he was trying to arrest were both shot and killed during a struggle early Sunday in the Bronx. The NYPD identified the slain officer as Brian Mulkeen, age 33.
Statement from Governor Andrew Cuomo
"I am absolutely heartbroken by the tragic loss of NYPD Officer Brian Mulkeen, who was shot and killed in the line of duty early Sunday morning in The Bronx. At 33, Officer Mulkeen was taken far, far too early from his family and from the city he sacrificed everything to protect. He is the embodiment of bravery and a true New York hero. On behalf of the New York family, I extend my deepest sympathies to Officer Mulkeen's family and loved ones during this excruciatingly painful period and I ask all New Yorkers to keep them in their prayers."
