The Police Department’s Internal Affairs Bureau continued its investigation yesterday into the death of Mr. Arzu, 41, on Friday night. The Bronx district attorney’s office was also reviewing the case.

Mr. Arzu was shot by Officer Raphael Lora, 37, who had confronted Mr. Arzu after he crashed his minivan into another car near Officer Lora’s home near midnight.

“The consul general can be assured there will be a complete investigation,” said the chief police spokesman, Paul J. Browne. “It is already under way.”

The shooting comes during a difficult period for the police. Weeks of public protest were touched off on Nov. 25, when five officers shot 50 bullets into a car in Queens, killing its driver, Sean Bell, and wounding two of his friends. Two officers were indicted on manslaughter charges and one was charged with reckless endangerment.

good morning Daemon

i am sooo tired of NYPD. between them and the LAPD, they come up with enough "mishaps" and "incidents" to supply every wildest police video show every created.

here is what i dont understand...if people were just getting meaner and more evil, this would be happening in every state in the US, not just CA and NY. there are other cities with very large populations and i dont hear about this happening anywhere else.

i also think that police everywhere are paranoid. you never know what 95 year old granny at a road block is packing. you dont know what 12 year old got into his dads gun cabinet. they just dont know! i cant say i blame them much either...

every U.S. patriot should know how to operate and ideally own an AK-47

A little while ago I was heading off to work and this jagoff cop is writing me a ticket even before he's allowed to. I wrote a letter to the judge about how the NYPD has a history of shooting civilians so I didn't want to protest too much. I'm still waiting to hear back. I hope this pushes the judge to cancel the ticket.
