Rookie cop attacked by alleged Islamic extremist with machete near Times Square
By New York Post, December 31, 2022:
A rookie NYPD police officer on his first day on the job was attacked with a machete on New Year’s Eve just blocks Times Square — and police are probing whether the suspect is a recently radicalized Islamic extremist, according to police sources.
The officer — who graduated Friday and was assigned to a Staten Island precinct but was working the New Year’s Eve detail for the night — was stationed at West 52nd Street and 8th Avenue when the machete-wielding madman approached him and two other officers around 9:30 p.m., NYPD sources told The Post.
The post was outside the area attendees were being screened for weapons, Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell said at a press conference early Sunday.
The rookie cop was slashed in the head, prompting another cop to shoot the suspect, The rookie cop, identified by Mayor Eric Adams as Paul, was struck on the head, prompting another cop to shoot the suspect, striking him in the shoulder, the sources said. Paul suffered a large laceration and skull fracture, Sewell said.
One of the other cops, an eight-year veteran, was also struck on the head with the weapon and suffered a laceration.
The attack was “unprovoked,” Adams said at the press conference.
The suspect, a 19-year-old, was arrested and taken to Bellevue Hospital. Senior law enforcement officials told The Post that cops are investigating whether he is a recently radicalized Islamic extremist, based on online postings.
Both wounded officers were also taken to Bellevue Hospital and are expected to recover.
Police are working with the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force to investigate the shocking attack. A motive was not immediately clear.“No backpacks or umbrellas in Times Square. They forgot to mention machetes,” a police source told The Post.
Sewell arrived to the hospital to visit the wounded cops shortly after they were admitted. The mayor arrived around 12:30 a.m. on New Year’s Day in an SUV covered in confetti. Earlier, Hizzoner pushed the button to start the ball drop countdown as spectators bid farewell to 2022.
Meanwhile, another cop was hit by a police car when he was trying to move the barricades on 52nd and Broadway to let responding officers get to the machete-wielding man, witnesses said.
“They moved the barricades really fast. He was a police officer in front of the barricade area and he moved it for police cars to move fast — and that’s when the barricade fell and got hit by the car. He got double whammied,” witness Kim Novack told The Post.

AND, this is why every single SANE AMERICAN needs to CONCEAL CARRY.
IT BEATS A KNIFE/SWORD/MACHETE any day.
No attack by a moslem anywhere should be considered shocking. It should simply be expected.
Exactly! What’s surprising is if they don’t act like the subhuman savages they are. But they mostly don’t surprise us.
BTW, the weapon is a “kukri”.
He was not a “madman.” He was just faithfully practicing what his “religion” promotes. The Post ignores the essence of the event.
Every muslime needs to be rounded up and deported. They will not assimilate and do not belong here. They can start with Omar first.
If only. I wonder if her White non-muzzrat husband knows he’s going to wake up dead one fine day? Probably not-he was stupid enough to marry her after all…
In Islam Attacking an infidel is an accepted form of religious expression.
Stopping an Islamic attack from happening is interference with religious expression and/or worship.
Don’t laugh…soon Moslem Judges in America and not a few other western nations will be tossing criminal cases over Islamic religious expression
EXECUTE THIS SWINE (pig) FORTHWITH.
B.L.M. = “BLUE LIVES MATTER”. Period
Please, get it right! This is NOT a machete – It is a Kukri, the weapon used by Gurkha guards. It is NOTHING like a machete.
