Off-Duty NYPD Officer Beaten, Robbed of Gun in Bronx Assault

A 27-year-old off-duty NYPD housing officer was brutally assaulted and robbed in the Bronx early Saturday morning after finishing his shift. The officer, who was still in uniform, was attacked by two masked individuals dressed in black near St. Peters Avenue in Parkchester around 4:10 a.m., where they stole his gun, wallet, ID cards, and personal and NYPD-issued phones. During the attack, the officer was severely beaten, suffering a fractured eye socket after being kicked in the head and was left unconscious. He was taken to a local hospital and is reported to be in stable condition. The officer was reportedly on a call with another officer during the assault and pleaded with his attackers not to shoot him before they fled the scene. Police are investigating the incident as part of a broader robbery scheme in the Bronx, and no arrests have been made yet.
