Suspect in off-duty NYPD officer shooting arrested at motel
The man suspected of shooting an off-duty New York Police Department officer in the head during a botched robbery was arrested two days later at a suburban motel, police said Tuesday. Authorities believe Randy Jones, 38, shot 26-year-old Officer Adeed Fayaz on Saturday after luring him to a location in Brooklyn on the pretext that he was selling a car via Facebook Marketplace, Chief of Detectives James Essig said at a news conference. Fayaz, who officials said remained hospitalized in grave condition on Tuesday, agreed to meet Jones on Saturday to buy a car for $24,000, Essig said.
