Police in Midtown are investigating a wild incident that left two police officers stabbed and a suspect shot just 10 blocks away from the heart of the New Year’s Eve celebration in Times Square.
Law enforcement sources said the violence broke out at about 9:28 p.m. on Dec. 31 at the corner of 52nd Street and 8th Avenue.
NYPD sources did not have immediate details about the circumstances leading up to the incident at this time.
Both injured officers were rushed to Bellevue Hospital, while the suspect — apparently shot in an exchange with police — was also hospitalized. Police sources said the officers are in stable condition; the suspect’s condition is unknown at this time.
