The two police officers killed in Brooklyn on Saturday were "shot and killed with no warning, no provocation," New York Police Commissioner William Bratton said. "They were quite simply, assassinated," Bratton said at an evening news conference.

Two New York City police officers were shot and killed ambush-style Saturday afternoon as they sat in their patrol car in Brooklyn, according to two law enforcement sources.

Both were shot in the head, one of the sources said. Few other details were available.

They were rushed to a hospital in critical condition, said police spokesman Sgt. Lee Jones.

The families of the fallen officers were at Woodhull Medical Center on Saturday, as dozens of police officers gathered in a show of support.

The officers -- one with two years' experience, the other with seven years on the job -- were normally assigned to downtown Brooklyn but were working a "critical response" detail in an area with higher crime, police said.

Yeah, I immediately go to year old thread filled with boring garbon when a police officer is shot.

Garbon is not boring. Reading you justifying your lack of attention to detail is.

It's not a lack of attention to detail to start a new thread for a this incident, any more than it was to start a thread for the police shootings, rather than putting them in the gun thread.

That is your prerogative.  Unless I merge the New York thread into this one, which would be ridiculous and petty.

Garbon is not even real.  He's a fictional entity created by CdM to exercise writing a believable gay black Republican for an unpublished novel.

I don't believe it.  CdM would never have written an unpublished novel.
