Brooklyn man, 20, who 'stabbed a police officer in the neck' is an Albanian immigrant
with possible ties to terrorism' as FBI joins investigation
The 20-year-old Brooklyn man who stabbed a police officer in the neck and then stole his handgun before he was shot eight times by nearby cops is an immigrant from the Balkan region who is being investigated for ties to terrorism.

Two other coppers were shot in the hand during the incident late on Wednesday, though it is unclear if they were shot by the suspect with the gun he stole from the ambushed cop or if they were hit by gunfire from responding officers.

The suspect has been identified as Dzenan Camovic. The FBI announced on Thursday that it is taking part in the investigation.

The incident took place late Wednesday near the intersection of Church Street and Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, where officers were patrolling the area to prevent looting.

According to police, one officer was ambushed by a man who walked up behind him and stabbed him in the neck.

The New York Police Department on Thursday released an image of a knife that Sherlocks claim was used to stab a police officer in Brooklyn late on Wednesday night

The man then took the policeman’s handgun. Officers who were on duty nearby rushed to the scene and found the suspect with the gun.

A total of 22 shots were fired, according to authorities.

Two coppers were shot in the hand, according to NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea.

All three officers are recovering from non-life threatening injuries at Kings County Hospital in Brooklyn.

Camovic, was shot eight times by officers who responded to the scene. He is listed at death's door.

#2 Suspected NYC cop-stabber is 'absolutely not a terrorist,' relative says
[NYPOST] The man suspected of stabbing an NYPD cop in the neck without warning is a “practicing Muslim” whose family is from Bosnia — but he’s “absolutely not a terrorist,” a relative who was interviewed by federal terrorism investigators said Thursday.

The relative also said that Dzenan Camovic, 20, never expressed any anti-police sentiment to him and questioned the official account of Wednesday night’s incident in Brooklyn.

‘“I’ve known him since he was 6-inches tall. That this is a terrorism, it’s illogical,” said the middle-aged man, who declined to give his name.

“He was raised here, [English] is his only language … He was as good of a child as a child could be.”

The relative’s comments came after law enforcement sources said authorities were investigating Wednesday night’s unprovoked attack as a possible act of terror, based in part on anti-cop messages that Camovic allegedly posted on social media.

Sources also said that while Camovic wasn’t on the radar of anti-terror investigators, he’d been in contact with people who were and his family may have a “nexus to terrorism.”

The relative, who was seen speaking to a pair of FBI agents outside the Brooklyn apartment building where Camovic lives with his parents and sister, said, “I have the utmost respect for law enforcement, but it’s easy to accuse a Muslim of terrorism.”

#3  and his family may have a “nexus to terrorism.”

We’ve seen how much it runs in families. Parents, grandparents, uncles, cousins, and the school and neighbours thereof.
