A Bronx gunman was shot by police officers after the suspect allegedly waved a firearm in transit and terrified straphangers on Thursday night — the third police shooting to occur that day, police confirmed.
Once the individual began approaching the next station, another set of officers blocked his approach, essentially sandwiching him between the two groups of lawmen.

Finally, one officer opened fire, striking the man in the hand and causing him to drop the gun. The individual who police say is known to law enforcement was whisked to Saint Barnabas Hospital, where he is expected to survive.who was killed in a police shooting on Thursday afternoon as officers investigated a reported burglary.Photo by Adrian Childress
