The NYPD has released a video of what they're describing as a "planned assassination attempt" Wednesday on one of their officers who was on anti-looting patrol in Brooklyn. "Earlier this week, 1 of our officers was stabbed in the neck without warning while protecting NYers," the NYPD tweeted on Saturday. "This was not a chance encounter—it was a planned assassination attempt on an NYPD police officer. There are reports of the suspect having shouted "Allahu akbar" before stabbing the officer, though the video has no audio. Because of the rhetoric we’re hearing, the anti-police rhetoric that’s storming our streets, are we surprised?” said Lynch, president of the Police Benevolent Association.
