What extraordinary professionalism and bravery by NYPD Officer Syed Ali. Attacking our men and women in uniform won’t ever be tolerated. The NYPD is upping its presence at this station and others to ensure officers have the support they need. https://t.co/rWEAf48DEk

«It’s impossible to say what damage it might cause… the police… If things had gone differently, we could be seriously injured or dead police officer».
We will remind, the incident occurred in the evening on Sunday at the East Broadway station. To SIEDO Ali, a woman came up complaining that it pursues the company of the homeless. When the police asked the men to leave the metro, they began to threaten him, and then climbed to fight. In the video, filmed by one of the witnesses, the COP fights back, wielding a truncheon and kicking.
