A New York man stabbed four of his family members to death and injured two officers early Sunday morning before he was shot and killed by authorities, according to the New York Police Department.
After receiving a call around 5:10 a.m. Sunday from a teenage girl who claimed her cousin “was killing her family members,” officers were dispatched to a multi–family home at 467 Beach 22nd Street, NYPD Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey said Sunday during a press conference.
Upon the officers’ arrival, the suspect, identified as 38-year-old Courtney Gordon of the Bronx, was seen attempting to vacate the premises with luggage and stabbed one cop in the head and another one in the neck, police said.
Briefing the media on what took place, Maddrey said, “As they get to the driveway they see a male walking out.
