    The pursuit concluded Wednesday afternoon when Ali Ali, who was deemed a threat and armed, was shot around 2 p.m. near Trout Brook Road in Highland Mills, Orange County. The New York State Police confirmed the fatal shooting in a statement.

    Earlier in the day, troopers attempted to apprehend Ali, who was driving the stolen car. The vehicle crashed and ignited near milepost 49 on the New York State Thruway. Ali then fled on foot into the nearby forest.

    Ali turned violent when he learned his clothes were not ready.

    A shelter-in-place alert was issued for residents after he was spotted on a trail camera around 12:35 p.m. in the Highland Mills area. After searching the woods, troopers had a confrontation with Ali, resulting in at least one officer firing their weapon, which led to Ali’s death.

    Ali was previously sentenced to probation in May for sexual abuse, which was set to last until 2034. His criminal history also includes arrests for forcible touching, robbery, and criminal mischief.

    The manhunt began following an incident on Monday at a Brooklyn laundromat. Ali, upset that his clothing wasn’t ready, attacked a 50-year-old female employee, slashing her neck and arms. The victim was later hospitalized in stable condition.

    The New York State Police and NYPD have been contacted for further details on the case.

    Good. This this guy was a rabbid animal. Now take some other violent felons from prison and let them dig a hole and bury him right in the woods. How convenient.
