Bronx, NY — On September 9, 2023, around 2:10 p.m., 22-year-old Mamady Cisse, was pacing around the Throgs Neck 7-Eleven when an employee stepped outside momentarily. The employee returned to find Cisse behind the cashier counter with a knife, standing beside a female employee who looked “very nervous,” while he was removing merchandise from behind the counter. The employee flagged down two officers at the 45 Precinct just down the block. The New York PD officers entered the store. Officer Nunez gave several commands to Cisse inside the location to take his hands out of his sweatshirt pocket. Cisse didn’t say anything to the officers, but revealed a knife and “lunged” at Officer Nunez. Officer Nunez shot Cisse once in the torso. Cisse was taken to Jacobi Hospital where he was pronounced dead at 3:14 p.m.. Officers recovered knives at the scene.
