Policeman who died was a 22-year-old rookie officer

One New York City police officer was killed and another was fighting for his life after the pair were shot Friday while responding to a domestic violence call, authorities said.

A spike in violent crime during the pandemic is an early challenge for Adams, who took over the helm of the city on Jan. 1. Adams was elected after putting public safety at the centre of his campaign, promising to usher in policies to quickly quell the violence. Shortly after police arrived on the scene, two officers were fired upon in a narrow hallway by the woman’s adult son. The third officer then shot the suspect McNeil.
