OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On May 13, 2025, NYPD officers responded to a domestic disturbance call at 108 Christopher Avenue in the Brownsville neighborhood of Brooklyn. A woman reported that her ex-boyfriend had entered her home, was threatening her, and had a history of carrying weapons including machetes and hammers. Officers accompanied her to the apartment, where they encountered the 25-year-old man inside. He allegedly pulled a large black knife from his waistband and advanced toward the officers. A Taser was deployed but failed. One officer opened fire, shooting the man twice in the chest. He was transported to Brookdale University Hospital and pronounced dead. The NYPD Force Investigation Division is reviewing the incident.
