Queens, New York — On Wednesday, April 5, 2023, at approximately 3:21 p.m., Police Officer Anthony Rock and his partner, Police Officer Brett Boller, both assigned to patrol in the 103rd Precinct and attired in uniform, were standing on a foot-post in front of 160-07 Jamaica Avenue when they were flagged down by the driver of a MTA bus. The driver requested their assistance for a physical altercation that was occurring on the bus. As the officers approached the bus, the front door opened and 22-year-old Devin Spraggins exited. With their attention directed to Spraggins by civilian witnesses and the bus driver, the officers attempted to speak with him to investigate the incident on the bus.
Spraggins, however, shoved Police Officer Boller and fled on foot toward 161st Street. The officers pursued Spraggins on foot onto 161st Street, where, in front of 90-23 161st Street, Police Officer Boller caught up with him and a physical struggle ensued. During the struggle with Police Officer Boller, Spraggins produced a firearm and discharged it, striking the officer in the right groin. Spraggins then pointed the firearm at Police Officer Boller before fleeing the scene on foot. Ballistic evidence recovered from the scene revealed that Spraggins discharged at least one shot from his firearm. As Spraggins fled the scene, he turned to Police Officer Rock and pointed the firearm in his direction.
As a result, Police Officer Rock discharged two shots from his service firearm. Spraggins was not struck by the gunfire and continued to flee the location on foot. Police Officer Boller was transported from the scene to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center where he was treated for a gunshot wound to his right groin. Spraggins was subsequently apprehended without incident. For his actions, Spraggins was arrested and charged with Attempted Murder in the First Degree (of a Police Officer), Attempted Murder in the Second Degree, Assault in the First Degree, Aggravated Assault Upon a Police Officer, Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Second Degree (loaded firearm), Menacing a Police Officer, and related charges.
