How they died
Deadly force
Detective Orlando Velazquez, 40, was shot in the hand when a bullet ricocheted off an unknown object. He was among several officers pursuing a man who police said stole a woman's purse, tried to cash one of her checks and then wrested a gun from an officer in a struggle near Nursery Street and Broadway. The police fatally shot Al-rahman Hall when he refused to drop the weapon.
