Of my bikes officers engaged in the community and addressing crime issues every night. Here he was at 52nd and master streets last night tracking down a man police connected to drug activity. Investigators say the man told caustic, quote, i dont want to have to do this before shooting his weapon prompting the officer to return fire. I can only surmise that he didnt want to be caught. Police say their suspect has a long criminal history, mostly with drug crime. Investigators plan to charge him soon as doctors continue to treat his gun shot injuries. Back at his hospital room the mayor stopped by to wish him well. And the entire Police Department says its been overwhelmed by the kind and encouraging words following another example of the risks officers take to protect this city.

Either. Joe what a heck of a season. Its been well recognized. This group of fans has supported this team. Chris one last draw and were headed for game seven. Carlson pokes a shot. The islander players thought the shot came well after the final buzzer and thats why this is happening. Chris its been a terrific series, and just giving you a little taste of whats to come. 1985 islanders trailed 20 to go to max. The sevengame marathon. Islanders came back from 31. Barry trotz group unable to finish off the islanders here today. Performance for jaro halak. You said he would have to deliver. Joe and he did. It was a spectacular performance.
