Original Note:
Police shot Derrell Mickles not for fare evasion, but because he charged at the officers with a knife. Unfortunately, the officers had extremely poor aim and struck a bystander as well as an officer. The bystander was hospitalized and is suing due to brain injuries. https://apnews.com/article/nyc-subway-shooting-brooklyn-bodycam-video-nypd-14c10f5f5c5d9d9697dfe019b19e1bd1 https://ny1.com/nyc/brooklyn/news/2024/10/04/family-of-police-subway-shooting-victim-files--80m-claim-against-city
