An off-duty NYPD officer was shot in the foot in Harlem Saturday evening, and police officials said the department was looking for two suspects wanted in connection to the shooting.
The shooting took place in the vicinity of West 126th Street and Broadway around 4:30 p.m., police confirmed. The officer is in "good spirits" and stable at the hospital, his doctor said Saturday night.
The off-duty officer was departing from a community vigil held at the Manhattanville Houses when "he saw two individuals begin to fire rounds from a gun," Chief of Housing Jeffrey Maddrey said at a press conference from Mount Sinai Hospital.
Police had not yet identified the two suspects as of the evening briefing, but investigators believe the shooting stemmed from a dispute observed at the complex hours earlier.
Maddrey said the men fled the area as the off-duty officer left the community center at the housing complex. The cop met responding officers and helped provide a description of the suspects when he "realized he was shot in the foot," the police chief said.
"I'm just making a plea to all of our communities, all of our citizens, our police, we all need to support one another. We have to stop the scourge of gun violence. We shouldn't have to live like this. We're not supposed to live like this," Maddrey said.
