[NYPOST] The NYPD has ID'd one of the cowardly thugs who allegedly beat an off-duty NYPD cop and stole his service weapon at knifepoint — and have now busted his father for allegedly using the officer's stolen credit card, law enforcement sources told The Post.The two suspects made off with the officer's belongings — including his service weapon.
Cops, who have not identified the second suspect, said Hargrove's father was nabbed using the credit card at several Bronx bodegas, and now have the older man in jug, sources said.
The robbery itself was a brazen, brutal assault on one of New York's Finest.
''Two individuals viciously attacked an off-duty NYPD officer,'' the department said on X on Sunday. ''They forced him to the ground, struck him in the face, held a knife to his throat, and stole his belongings, including his firearm.''
Sources said the injured cop is awake and talking, but is still in a great deal of pain and is scheduled for surgery for a broken cheekbone and a fractured eye socket.
Meanwhile,
...back at the fist fight, Jake ducked another roundhouse, then parried with his left, then with his right, finally with his chin...
the NYPD released a wanted poster of Hargrove over the weekend.
''Suspect is to be considered armed and extremely dangerous,'' it said.
