Police officers saluted the body of 48 year old NYPD Detective Cedric Dixon as a white van hauled him away from North Central Bronx Hospital where he passed away. The rain poured as a brigade of police vehicles followed that van. Dixon is one of three members the #NYPD family has lost to coronavirus in a little over 48 hours, according to Police Commissioner Dermot Shea who spoke at a news conference. “We are hurting, we are crying and we continue to fight,” he said. “We simply have no other choice.” Detective Dixon had 23 years on the force, according to Commissioner Shea who said he was currently assigned to the 32nd Precinct Detective squad in Harlem. Commissioner Shea said Detective Dixon was the person who would do anything to help you, according to his co-workers. “He’s going to be so sorely missed.” #RIP

Third Police Officer Infected with Coronavirus; Public Hospitals Under Pressure

A 31-year-old Police Tactical Unit (PTU) officer has been infected with the coronavirus. The male officer is stationed at the Kowloon West Regional Headquarters.

As confirmed cases are rising, the Hospital Authority has warned of the pressure on public hospitals especially on isolation beds in Hong Kong.

According to Ming Pao, there are only around 700 beds for adult patients in low pressure ward. As of March 28, over 70% of these beds have been consumed in Hong Kong's public hospital.

(WARNING: 21+) The Nye County Sheriff’s Office released body camera footage from a March 25 incident in Pahrump in which a suspect shot a detective in Pahrump and was killed by another detective. The footage shows Matthew Moore, 19, firing a Mossberg 12 gauge shotgun over his mother’s shoulder and hitting Detective Bryan Cooper. Moore fires three more times and is standing over Cooper appearing to try to fire a fifth time when Detective Logan Gibbs fired at least 13 times from his Glock 9mm and hit Moore about 12 times. #shooting

The sheriff’s office received a call on March 25 about a stabbing in Pahrump. Detectives investigated and determined Moore tried to rob a person of a belt and cut that person’s neck.

About 10:40 p.m. Cooper and Gibbs went to Moore’s home. Cooper approached the front door and Gibbs was along the side of the home.
Moore’s mother answered the door, excused herself to go tend to dogs and then returned. Moore walked up behind his mother and fired a shotgun over his mother’s shoulder, hitting Cooper in the protective vest

Moore fired other shots and Cooper’s protective vest stopped rounds. Cooper was on his back on the ground when Moore walked up to him and “prepared to execute Detective Cooper,” Wehrly said. That’s when Gibbs fired from the side of the home and killed Moore.

Cooper is in stable condition in the hospital, Wehrly said. Moore’s mother cooperated with investigators, the sheriff said.

Had Moore survived he would have faced charges that included attempted murder and attempted murder of a police officer, Wehrly said.

A police officer for the Phoenix Police Department died Sunday night and two others were injured while responding to a domestic violence call that turned chaotic, the department said in a statement. The two other officers are expected to recover. The deceased officer was identified as Greg Carnicle, a commander at the department who was months away from retirement. He served on the force for 31 years and was most recently the head of all evening and weekend patrol operations, the statement read. #RIP

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers working at the Ysleta port of entry in El Paso seized 15 pounds of methamphetamine Sunday morning. The large seizure was made just after 8:00 a.m. when an 18-year-old U.S. male driving a 2008 Cadillac Catera arrived from Mexico. CBP officers selected the vehicle for an inspection. A CBP drug sniffing dog searched the car and alerted to the presence of narcotics. A Z-portal scan of the vehicle also showed anomalies in the appearance of the dashboard area. CBP continued their inspection and located 13 bundles in the dashboard. The contents of the packages tested positive for methamphetamine. CBP officers arrested the driver. He was turned over to Homeland Security Investigations agents to face charges associated with the failed smuggling attempt.
