Terrifying video shows the moment New York City police officers barely escaped death after a man opened fire on them in the stairwell of an apartment building. On Monday afternoon, New York City Police Commissioner, Dermot Shea, shared the video on Twitter and said the two officers ‘are lucky to be alive’. In a tweet, Shea said: ‘Your police officers have only split-seconds to make life & death decisions – and we see it far too often.’ He said the officers of the NYPD’s 71st Precinct in Brooklyn were responding to a 911 call regarding an armed confrontation just after 9pm in the Lefferts Gardens neighborhood.
