Malcolm Gus Jr., a seventime convicted felon, opened fire with a fully automatic AR-15 rifle, spraying multiple 5.56 rounds into the police vehicle. The officer behind the wheel was struck twice in the head. Both shots, incredibly just grazing him. Shards of glass from the windshield, torn apart by bullets, injured both officers inside the cruiser. Thankfully, both officers have since made a full recovery. Gus fled the scene and officers lost sight of him approximately 200 yd away near Broadway and West 135th Street. About a week later, police were able to track him down, arrest him, and seize the vehicle believed to have been used in the attack. He is now in custody with bail set at $2 million. Prosecutors have filed several charges against Gus, including two counts of assault with a machine gun upon a peace officer, one count of attempted murder of a peace officer, one count of shooting at an occupied motor vehicle, one count of possession of a machine gun, and two counts of possession of a firearm by a felon.
