Authorities say the shooting took place Wednesday afternoon when members of the Westchester Safe Streets task force tried to apprehend three suspects in a gun investigation.
- A Yonkers detective is in serious but stable condition and a suspect is dead following a police-involved shooting Wednesday afternoon.
"One of the suspects attempted to push past one of our detectives, a Yonkers detective, and when our Yonkers detective pushed him back, it appears he fired one shot at our detective from his pocket, shooting him in the stomach," Mueller said. It's an assignment Menton has done before, one nearly two years ago, when sources say he helped bring a man firing shots near Getty Square into custody."It's very frustrating to represent an area where people often might not feel safe," Councilmember Corazon Pineda-Isaac said.
