Russel Timoshenko, 23, died at Kings County Hospital from the injuries he suffered early Monday when he and his partner stopped a stolen SUV in Brooklyn’s Crown Heights neighborhood, according to Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly. [ap]
According to 1010 WINS, the victim had a Russian Orthodox minister (or priest or whatever the term used was) by his side for confession. I’m guessing he isn’t Jewish.
May this officer rest in peace and his family be comforted during this terrible time.

Hopefully, the feds step into this case (they fled across interstate lines after the shooting), convict, and give them capital punishment.
horrible, put the paroleees behind bars for life.
