“#NYPD officer wounded in Brooklyn shootout identified<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

The NYPD officer who was wounded in a Brooklyn shootout with a known gangbanger has been identified as Brian McGurran, officials said Thursday.<\/p>\n

McGurran who joined the NYPD in April 2017 and was assigned to the 81st Precinct, was shot three times in the gunfight around 11:15 p.m. Wednesday in Bushwick.<\/p>\n

Mayor de Blasio hailed the 28-year-old officer as a hero Thursday morning and praised the NYPD\u2019s policing strategies that got the alleged gunman off the street.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is an example of the dangers our officers face but also a profound example of the heroism and courage they exhibit, how much we depend on them and the smart strategies of the NYPD to have officers where they are needed,\u201d de Blasio said.<\/p>\n

Police Commissioner Dermot Shea said McGurran, along with a sergeant and other cops in the 81st Precinct, spotted a man\u00a0\u201cwalking briskly\u201d and \u201cblading his body\u201d near Macon Street and Howard Avenue. <\/p>\n

When the cops got out of the car, the man with \u201ca firearm turns on the officers and begins to shoot,\u201d Shea said.<\/p>\n

McGurran, who lives in Smithtown, Long Island, was shot in the bulletproof vest, the buttocks and right leg, Shea said.<\/p>\n

He was taken to Kings County Hospital Center and was expected to be released Thursday afternoon.<\/p>\n

De Blasio said the officers were near the Brooklyn park because there had been previous violence in the area.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat what precision policing is,\u201d he said. \u201cThis assailant committed an act of violence and literally ran into the NYPD patrol.<\/p>\n

\u201cOfficer Brian McGurran, a heroic officer, [was] out there protecting us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The alleged shooter, Boyce Hayward, was taken into custody after being hit once by gunfire in the leg. The 26-year-old was also taken to Kings County Hospital Center.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a story that ends, thank god, with our officer \u2014 who, although is wounded and\u00a0our thoughts and prayers are will his family \u2014 is expected to make a full recovery,\u201d de Blasio said.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
