Man Fatally Injured in Bronx After N.Y.P.D. Officer Uses Cooler to Dislodge Him from Motorbike

Tragic Incident Under Investigation as N.Y.P.D. Takes Action

In a devastating turn of events, a man identified as Erik Duran lost his life after a New York Police Department (N.Y.P.D.) sergeant employed a cooler to forcefully dislodge him from his motorbike in the Bronx. The incident, which unfolded along Aqueduct Avenue near West 190th Street, has sparked an investigation by the state attorney general’s office. Eric Duprey was tragically pronounced dead at the scene, as confirmed by officials.

N.Y.P.D. swiftly responded to the situation by suspending the involved officer, Sergeant Erik Duran, without pay. The suspension was announced through an official statement shared on social media platforms on Thursday. The shocking event was captured by surveillance video and revealed that Sergeant Duran hurled a white plastic cooler at Eric Duprey, who was driving away on his motorbike from a group of officers stationed on a sidewalk.

The impact of the thrown cooler caused Mr. Duprey’s motorbike to skid and topple over, leading to a tragic outcome. Officers on the scene quickly approached the fallen man in the aftermath of the incident.

As the circumstances surrounding the fatality are examined, the city’s medical examiner will determine the precise cause of death. The state attorney general’s office will spearhead the comprehensive investigation into the incident, with the N.Y.P.D.’s force investigation division lending its support to the process.

Aware of the potential public response, the Police Department is reportedly preparing for possible backlash, as indicated by an internal memo obtained by The New York Times.
