A plainclothes policeman is in a critical condition after being shot in the head in New York. Brian Moore, 25, was shot while attempting to question a suspect from his police car in the borough of Queens. New York's Jamaica Hospital said the officer underwent surgery there about four hours after the shooting. Police said the suspect, named as Demitrius Blackwell, was arrested about an hour after the incident.
Bill Bratton, New York's police commissioner, said Mr Moore and his partner Erik Janssen were in an unmarked car when they saw a man adjust something on his belt. Suspecting he was carrying a gun, the officers approached him.
