Police officers shot and killed a man in Brooklyn early Sunday after he was spotted pointing a gun at another man on the street, according to NYPD officials.

NYPD Chief of Department Jeff Maddrey said during a news conference the officers were driving in their patrol car in East Flatbush around 1:15 a.m. when they saw the man with the gun at East 52nd Street and Church Avenue.

Maddrey said the man started to run off when the officers ordered him to drop his weapon, and that one of the officers “momentarily stunned” him with a taser.

“The male got back up, he still had the gun in his hand,” said Maddrey. “He runs back on the sidewalk. The officers give further commands to the male to drop the gun and they fire their weapons.”

The man died of his wounds at Kings County Hospital. NYPD officials did not immediately provide the name of the victim or how many times he was shot.

Maddrey said a bystander may have been grazed by the officers’ bullets.

“About an hour and half after this incident occurred, another male walked into a local hospital with a graze wound and he said he was in the vicinity of this area,” he said. “So this will be part of the investigation to see if this male is actually hit at this location.”
