Manhattan, New York — The NYPD released body camera footage of two New York City police officers shooting a knife-wielding man in the East Village on June 4. Police Officer Jillian Suarez and Police Officer Bryan Rozanski, both assigned to patrol in uniform in the 9th Precinct, fired a total of two shots from their service firearms during a confrontation with a subject, later identified as Peyman Bahadoran, a 55-year-old male. The incident began at 6:38 a.m. when Police Officer Suarez and her partner, Police Officer Melissa Brown, entered the deli. Bahadoran began yelling at Officer Brown as he entered the location behind her. He pulled a twelve-inch “Defender Xtreme” knife from a sheath that was attached to the right side of his leg and menaced her with the knife. Police Officer Brown discharged her conducted electrical weapon or “Taser” at Bahadoran.
The Taser probes did not make contact with the subject, rendering it ineffective. Police Officer Brown went behind the counter while Police Officer Suarez moved outside of the deli and requested additional police assistance over her portable radio. Bahadoran directed his attention towards a deli employee and demanded a pack of cigarettes. When he placed the knife on the counter to pick up the cigarettes, the deli employee grabbed the knife and handed it to Officer Brown. Bahadoran confronted Police Officer Suarez, who was pointing her service firearm at him, at the entrance to the deli. Bahadoran shoved Officer Suarez back as he exited the deli. Police Officer Rozanski arrived, along with Police Officer Michael Murphy and Lieutenant Luis Machado, in response to the call for assistance.
The officers commanded Bahadoran to comply, but he reached toward the sheath and then lunged at Lieutenant Machado. Officers Rozanski and Suarez each fired one shot from their service firearms at Bahadoran. Bahadoran suffered a gunshot wound to his left arm and a gunshot wound to the lower back. Police officers on the scene called for medical assistance and applied a tourniquet to his left arm. Bahadoran was transported to Bellevue Hospital, where he was admitted and treated for his injuries. Police Officers Suarez and Murphy were equipped with body-worn cameras that were activated for this incident. Lieutenant Luis Machado and Police Officers Brown and Rozanski were not equipped with body-worn cameras on this date. Bahadoran was charged with Robbery 1st Degree, Menacing a Police Officer, Menacing 2nd Degree, and Menacing 3rd Degree.

You could play yakety sax on this clip and it wouldn’t even be ironic.
Women.
Women should not be cops. Let’s be honest. There is too much of a disparity of power between males and females. A 150-160 lb. female is going to have a difficult time fighting with a tiny 120 lb. man let alone a 200+ lb. man.
The guy is an idiot but he still shouldn’t have gotten shot there. The only reason he did is because the female officers got too flustered. He wasn’t armed anymore when he lunged at the other female officer, who is also an idiot for running straight up to the guy with her gun extended at arms length rather than putting distance between her and the suspect.
2 ðŸŒ
This is the reality of female cops. They could have at least hooked each of them up with a man. First thing she does she frails her arms and leaves her partner. Lol
No reason to shoot him after the knife was taken and its 6v1.
Now if anything should have been on the news it should have been this. Bc he didn’t have shit in his hands and she gave his ass a double tap to the chest 💥💥🔫
This should be on comedy central…She ran outside the store and left her partner inside with the clerk who saved the day…In reality she shot an unarmed man…she would had been more justified shooting him inside while he chased her partner with the knife.
She waited until after he was unarmed to shoot him? mind blown
Am I the only one who thinks that man was just a bit high and was not a murderer?
WTF took so long. Jeez. And good job on that clerk, cops not so much.
Women cops are a baaaaaad idea…
Just want to wear a cop uniform girls??????????????? 🤷ðŸ»â€â™‚ï¸
All these cops need to be fired immediately
This is the wage gap's fault, too! Right?
FINALLY!
The police ran and did nothing tell the other 3 officers came
When you taking LARPing too far lol
Females really shouldn’t be cops and if they are they should go through a different academy that is much more difficult. This is unacceptable, both are useless
Never mess with the arab ock😂
Partner bolts as soon as it started. Chicks being cops 😂
Evaluation of the female officer: she needs to get real with this shit or fucking change job , the fact you didnt shot him LONG time ago is enough proof she isnt made for this
bodied
CROSSFIRE. They should be shit canned.
He looks like a Jewish man
blonde one should not be a cop at all.
Poor dog bro
This is purely LACK of training. She went into total "oh shit" mode. "Move back move back!"
And her grip was just sloppy. She's lucky she hit the guy…and not the people behind him.
I hope the Cop is quit
Must be hard for police officers to tackle somebody they have to resort to shooting you are just nothing more than a bunch of scared little boys and girls
Pucker factor for that cross fire though 😬
I think the only reason the blonde officer isn't fired, is because her dad was a heroic cop during 9/11.
Dude has knife and is threatening her partner and store clerks… runs out door.
Guy loses knife and comes outside half ass goes after her….. screams
Guy does some weird ass kick at 3 officers coming in as back up… shoots him twice
Seems legit to me.
1:33 damn, that like some movie gunshot sound effects there.
How embarassing.
Another short film cut off at the end. Guy was Unarmed pushed a 👮â€â™€ï¸ and then got shot.
Oh gawd I can only take so much confirmation of all my biases, police activity plz (never) staph
They didn’t have to shoot him
I don’t wanna bash on the first 2 officers been getting enough hate already. But that poor cashier did more precision work than them both combined 😂
Poor dog!
