On Thursday, 32-year-old Zale Thompson allegedly attacked a group of NYPD officers. An excerpt: He struck one officer in the right arm and another in the head, according to the commissioner. The two officers who weren’t hit then shot at and killed the attacker. The law enforcement official identified the suspect as Zale H. Thompson, who had a criminal record in California and had been discharged from the Navy for misconduct, according to the source. The police officer who was struck in the head remains in critical but stable condition. The other officer, who is 24, was struck in the arm and was expected to be released soon. Some are speculating that Thompson has ties to radical Islamic groups, but the police dismissed those claims Friday morning. newsone/3065434/zale-thompson-nypd-attack/
