Queens Carjacking Suspect Injures Elderly Woman, NYPD Detective Wounded in Friendly Fire

Kevin Dubuisson, a 28-year-old repeat offender on parole, embarked on a violent attempted carjacking spree in Queens, leaving an 87-year-old woman seriously injured after he backed into her with a stolen SUV. His rampage included three attempted carjackings within minutes, targeting a gas station, a 32-year-old woman, and an Uber driver near the Whitestone Expressway. Police confronted Dubuisson, who was unarmed but appeared to have a fake weapon, leading to a chaotic standoff where three officers fired their guns. During the exchange, Detective Corey Fisher, a 12-year NYPD veteran, was accidentally shot by fellow officers in his right hand and left leg in a friendly-fire incident. Fisher was hospitalized and expected to recover, with Mayor Eric Adams and Commissioner Jessica Tisch visiting him and his family. Dubuisson was taken into custody without injury, faced multiple charges, and was later hospitalized himself for an unclear medical issue before his arraignment.
