On a spring afternoon in 2015, three NYPD officers were on patrol in Bedford-Stuyvesant, when they noticed a red Chevy Impala with dark tinted windows.
Officers Vaughan Ettienne, Ryan Galvin, and Mark Xylas, part of their precinct’s plainclothes Anti-Crime team, pulled the car over. Police said they smelled the odor of marijuana. When the driver couldn t provide the proper paperwork, the cops said, they ordered the driver out of the car.
That’s when they noticed a large straight-edge knife resting on the floorboard, according to the NYPD. The officers cuffed the suspect and took him to the station. The knife was just the beginning: Inside the car, police said they later found a long, black machine gun with two high-capacity magazines, one of which was loaded.
