Queens, New York — On Wednesday, April 5, 2023, at approximately 3:21 p.m., Police Officer Anthony Rock and his partner, Police Officer Brett Boller, both assigned to patrol in the 103rd Precinct and attired in uniform, were standing on a foot-post in front of 160-07 Jamaica Avenue when they were flagged down by the driver of a MTA bus. The driver requested their assistance for a physical altercation that was occurring on the bus. As the officers approached the bus, the front door opened and 22-year-old Devin Spraggins exited. With their attention directed to Spraggins by civilian witnesses and the bus driver, the officers attempted to speak with him to investigate the incident on the bus.
Spraggins, however, shoved Police Officer Boller and fled on foot toward 161st Street. The officers pursued Spraggins on foot onto 161st Street, where, in front of 90-23 161st Street, Police Officer Boller caught up with him and a physical struggle ensued. During the struggle with Police Officer Boller, Spraggins produced a firearm and discharged it, striking the officer in the right groin. Spraggins then pointed the firearm at Police Officer Boller before fleeing the scene on foot. Ballistic evidence recovered from the scene revealed that Spraggins discharged at least one shot from his firearm. As Spraggins fled the scene, he turned to Police Officer Rock and pointed the firearm in his direction.
As a result, Police Officer Rock discharged two shots from his service firearm. Spraggins was not struck by the gunfire and continued to flee the location on foot. Police Officer Boller was transported from the scene to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center where he was treated for a gunshot wound to his right groin. Spraggins was subsequently apprehended without incident. For his actions, Spraggins was arrested and charged with Attempted Murder in the First Degree (of a Police Officer), Attempted Murder in the Second Degree, Assault in the First Degree, Aggravated Assault Upon a Police Officer, Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Second Degree (loaded firearm), Menacing a Police Officer, and related charges.

Who would have thought that a black guy would do that? Weird…
That's legit attempted murder right there !
How the hell want to be a cop in NY (and another anticop democrats cities)!?
"Man Shoots a Cop Over a Bus Seat" The world is going insane.
Its funny how white people marry the 2nd cousin and have sex with the family pet. But hey lets not discuss stereotypes
Ðападавшего ликвидировали?
Like always. You know his skin color
Anyone know if the Officer is ok ?
Black at it again.
Another stereotype….
Thank God New York has those strict gun laws.
Animals
Is it just me or did it sound like he tried to pull the trigger and shoot the cop a second time but it clicked like maybe the gun jammed which saved the cop's life. The sound may have been something else though but it even looks like he was trying to point and pull the trigger a second time.
this is NYC and can blame the justice system and leftist ideas for allowing this.
13%ers are so prone to violence, for absolutely mindless reasons
Looks like he tried to fire again but either jam or misfire
Well well well..
And they will be significantly dropping funding of NYPD… The only thing that can save NYC now would be Batman.. or a republican government.
Why do they always look the same and come from the same "community"?
What are the chances?
Prejudices = knowledge + ability to recognize patterns
Now clearly people should understand why officers shoot when someone is reaching for something..this is EXACTLY why people
Damn demokkkrat policies. If a republican were the mayor there nyc would be the safest big city in the world.
How is it possible? I thought guns were forbidden in New York… Hasn't the criminal get the Memo?…
Was that a gun jam?
Thats one way to say godbye to life
What happened to the black perp, who tried to murder the police officer ?
The black community has got to be brought under control
Suspect was released to his mommy, by the governor and the president, because it was racists for arresting him.
And you know what the NYC DA is worried about … trying to go after President Trump …the crime is so bad in New York City ,when the Police Officers are chasing the suspect…they dont even take a 2nd look and keep going about their business…
Tupac said to off these links
And people say black lives matter smh
Black power
ðŸ½pigs Do not delete the comments, each person has their opinion and damn it
this is why blacks are stereotyped and racially profiled
