Three officers with the New York Police Department suffered non-life-threatening injuries over the weekend as anti-police mobs threw objects such as glass bottles and debris at them in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of the city.
According to the New York Post, at least 11 people were arrested on charges of disorderly conduct following the melee that took place Saturday night and early Sunday morning.
At one point during the confrontation, several gunshots could be heard emanating from the rooftop of the housing complex—however, no injuries from gunfire were reported.
Following the incident, the Police Benevolent Association blasted Mayor Bill de Blasio on Twitter:, "How are cops supposed to do our job in this environment? When will @NYPDNews or @NYCMayor @BilldeBlasio stand up & say enough is enough?"
