Charges are pending Tuesday against the man who allegedly shot and killed a decorated police officer during a Queens traffic stop the prior evening, as New York City reels from its first slaying of an NYPD cop in two years.
The 34-year-old suspect, who has not been identified, was shot in the back amid the frenzy in Far Rockaway. He is expected to survive.
According to investigators, NYPD officer Jonathan Diller, a three-year member of the force assigned to the Community Response Team, was with another officer near Mott Avenue and Beach 19th Street when the two approached a vehicle illegally parked at a bus stop around 6 p.m. Monday. Two men were inside the vehicle.
