WARWICK – The New York City police officer, who was shot in the neck and chin when he was ambushed by a gunman in the Bronx on Saturday night, came home to his residence in Warwick on Sunday afternoon.
When Paul Stroffolino, 31, was shot, his partner rushed him to a hospital where he was treated and discharged to go home where he arrived early Sunday afternoon.
Police officials said Stroffolino was grazed in the chin and neck when a gunman walked up to their patrol van on East 163rd Street and Fox Street around 8:30 at night and opened fire. His partner drove him to the hospital for treatment of the non-life-threatening injuries.
On Sunday morning a gunman walked into the 41st Precinct station house and opened fire wounding a police lieutenant before he was taken into custody.
It is believed the same man, Robert Williams, was involved in both incidents.
