Horrifying new footage shows that the moment an NYPD officer shot dead a man who was holding his mother in a chokehold while claiming to be armed with a knife.
The terror unfolded in an apartment in The Bronx on December 23. The new bodycam video sees Officers Alex Morgese and Mohammad Hossain hurriedly entering the home after a 911 call was made about a man acting violently.
The caller claimed that the suspect, Michael Dotel, had 'ingested drugs, was acting violently, and in possession of a knife.' The video begins with the cops in the hallway of the building in the Bedford-section of the violence plagued borough.
Screams can be heard as one of the officers demands Dotel to let them in. As soon as the door opens, an unidentified person scurries out of the front door.
The cops enter and are greeted by Dotel, 30, shouting: 'Do it right now! Do it, I f***ing dare you! Do it! She's gonna get it!'
'You got a knife in your hand?,' Morgese shouts back. 'Shoot me! Shoot me! Right now!' Dotel screams. 'You got a knife?,' Morgese answers. 'Do it! Do it! Do it!,' comes the response.
