A terrified Bronx bodega worker fleeing armed thugs who held up his store was shot dead by a cop responding to the scene — and the three alleged robbers have been charged with his murder.


Reynaldo Cuevas, 20, was shot once in the left shoulder after he barreled into a cop who had been called to the late-night scene, Commissioner Ray Kelly said.

​

the sad thing is that i didn't even know what a bodega was. had to google it.

RIP Reynaldo Cuevas.

its always weird when a cop does something like this and then they charge someone else with the consequence. that cop was negligent. its like when cops do a high speed chase in a crowded city and plow into someone and they charge the people the cops are chasing with murder.

It's called felony murder. If you commit a felony and someone dies as a result, you get charged. The cop wasn't negligent, the plowed into him and the gun went off. He was responding to an armed robbery so of course he's going to approach it with his weapon drawn. It's a tragic situation but not negligent.

NYPD must have a shoot first ask questions later policy.
