NYPD fatally shoots driver on Belt Parkway following 911 call about possible abduction

A Saturday night police shooting on Brooklyn’s Belt Parkway near Exit 8 left a driver dead after officers responding to a 911 call about a possible abduction opened fire on a white cargo van, police say. Around 7:30 p.m., a witness also flagged down officers at the scene, where the driver continued ramming nearby vehicles before police discharged their firearms and struck him. Officers pulled the man from the van, called for an ambulance and performed CPR before he was pronounced dead at a hospital. Investigators later found the woman involved unharmed, saying the screaming stemmed from a domestic dispute and that the driver was wanted in two prior cases involving the same woman.
