The suspected gunman, who has since been identified as Bernardo Castro Mata, was later revealed to be an immigrant from Venezuela who entered the United States via Eagle Pass, Texas in July 2023.
Both Officers Abreu and Yarusso were released from the hospital on Monday morning after they were treated for their minor gunshot wounds.
Mata, who was struck in the ankle during the firefight, was later taken to New York-Presbyterian Queens to undergo surgery.
“A senseless act of violence,” New York City Mayor Eric Adams said after Monday morning’s shooting in Queens. “Total disregard for life.”
