St. Albans, Queens, New York - On July 9, 2022 at 6:22 p.m., NYPD officers fatally shot a Queens man, identified as Raul Antonio Hardy, who had called 911 to threaten top New York officials. “He threatened our governor, he threatened numerous elected officials and dignitaries and he threatened members of the Police Department,” NYPD Chief of Patrol Jeff Maddrey said at a press conference by the scene of the crime, on 116th Ave. near Francis Lewis Blvd. in St. Albans. “He clearly stated that he was going to ‘blow the head off’ of the first police officers that he saw.” Hardy also named Mayor Adams as a target. A sergeant from the 113th Precinct led “multiple units” to the vicinity of the Hardy’s address, getting out of their vehicles a few houses away. Outside, they saw Hardy, who began firing after a “short verbal exchange” including threats and cursing at the cops, according to Maddrey. He refused to listen to the commands of the officers as they told him to take his hands out of his pockets and brandished a firearm and pointed it at the officers. This is when Hardy received multiple magdumps from Glock handguns. The officers had their firearms drawn and a firefight ensued. “At least six members of the 113th Precinct fired their guns.” They fired more than 100 shots, Maddrey estimated. After Hardy was taken down, cops cuffed him and attempted to apply “life-saving measures.” Hardy died at a local hospital. St. Albans is a residential neighborhood in the southeastern portion of the New York City borough of Queens.
