Second NYC officer dies after weekend shooting

BY MYCHAEL SCHNELL - 01/25/22 02:40 PM EST

A second New York Police Department (NYPD) officer has died after being shot in Harlem while responding to a Friday night 911 call.

The NYPD announced on Tuesday that Wilbert Mora, 27, died after responding to a domestic dispute. Mora, in critical condition, was transferred from the Harlem Hospital to NYU Langone Medical Center on Sunday.

NYPD officer Jason Rivera, 22, was also killed as a result of Friday’s shooting in Harlem.

I've read elsewhere that the transfer was made so that his organs could be donated.
