NEW YORK — The family of an off-duty police officer who was shot in the head and critically wounded is now in the process of making grave “decisions” about his medical treatment, Mayor Eric Adams said Monday morning.
“We are lifting the family up in prayers, and right now the family is deciding their decisions and is still in the care of the medical professionals,” Adams said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
The police officer, who has not yet been identified by the New York Police Department, had been planning to purchase a car he found online, but he became the victim of a holdup on Saturday instead, according to police sources, who said a relative of the officer returned fire once the deal went sideways.
