Decorated NYPD Officer Brian Moore died Monday with his stricken family at his hospital bedside — leaving an entire city awash in grief.

“Policing is never easy,” NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton said Monday evening. “At this time in America, it’s even more difficult … I’ve been doing this for almost 50 years, and it never gets easier, and I’ve heard this at almost every police death, ‘Why is it always the good ones?’ Maybe the reason it’s always the good ones is because there are so many good ones.”

A Queens ex-con was arraigned on attempted-murder charges Sunday after allegedly shooting an undercover NYPD cop in the head, leaving him clinging to life.
Suspect Demetrius Blackwell, who appeared in Queens Criminal Court in a torn prison jumpsuit — his legs shackled and his hands cuffed behind his back — did not enter a plea and was held without bail. His next court date is Friday.
The plainclothes officer he is accused of shooting, Brian Moore, 25, took a turn for the worse early Sunday after surgery to relieve pressure on his brain, and distraught family members were rushing to his side, sources said.
Moore is the fifth NYPD officer to be shot in as many months.

Moore’s father and uncle are retired NYPD sergeants, and his cousin is a city cop.

Bratton said the suspect was “taken into custody 90 minutes after the incident.”

[FROM ARTICLE]
The anti-crime plainclothes officer — the fifth NYPD cop shot in the last five months — was in a car with a sergeant when they saw a man on the street fiddling with his waistband at about 6:10 p.m., a police source said.
When the officer left his vehicle and approached on foot, the suspect drew his gun and fired at least three shots.
The officer was struck twice in his head.
The shooting happened near the intersection of 212 Street and 104th Avenue in the quiet, middle class residential neighborhood Queens Village.
[. . .]
A suspect was taken into custody shortly afterward at his nearby home.
His name was not immediately released. But law enforcement sources told The Post that he has a police record of ten arrests including robbery, grand larceny and criminal possession of a weapon.
[. . .]
The injured officer had been a cop for about four years; his father is a retired officer.
