An NYPD detective fired off a shot at a vehicle during a Bronx traffic stop, police said Thursday.
The officers pulled a 31-year-old man over near the intersection of E. 233rd St. and Harper Ave. in Edenwald around 2:45 p.m., cops said.
The traffic stop went sideways, but a police spokesperson could not elaborate on why the detective pulled the trigger.
The bullet hit the driver’s car. No one was injured.
Police arrested the driver and recovered a gun that was in his possession, cops said.
The detective was taken to a local hospital for tinnitus.
