New York Times Square Attack: Video Shows Exact Moment When Woman With 2 Knives Was Shot Dead By Police After She Killed One, Injured Another

On Monday, a woman wielding two knives carried out an attack in New York City's Times Square, resulting in the death of one individual and injury to another. Disturbing footage has emerged, capturing the precise moment police opened fire on the suspect. In the video, the woman is seen confronting officers, brandishing knives in each hand.

Five to six officers, including a female officer, surrounded the woman as she continued to threaten them. The suspect then charged towards one officer, resulting in three shots being fired and the woman collapsing on the ground. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani denounced the attack, crediting the NYPD officers for preventing a more catastrophic situation.

The mayor confirmed that one victim and the alleged attacker tragically lost their lives, while the second victim remains hospitalized in stable condition. The New York Police Department has characterized the incident as an "officer-involved shooting," with the investigation ongoing. Authorities suspect the stabbing was not terror-related, though the motive for the attack remains unknown.

The woman's identity has yet to be disclosed, and the police are still investigating the events leading up to the stabbing, the police response, and the circumstances surrounding the officer-involved shooting.
