The man ran into a nearby apartment building and became trapped between two sets of doors. When other officers located them, he opened fire on them through the doors. The officers returned fire, killing the suspect.

Tomorrow will mark the 29th anniversary of Lt. Narvaez’s death. I worked with Freddy in the 84 Precinct, he was a 3rd platoon sergeant and I was a rookie cop. He was hands down the best boss on the job. Learned a lot from him.

Rest in peace my friend.
