Overview
- Probationary Police Officer Kamir Loubarria collapsed while working out at the College Point police academy and was rushed to a hospital where he was pronounced dead, sources reported Monday.
- The NYPD confirmed Loubarria’s death in a statement on X and described him as committed to a life of service.
- Media reports say EMS performed CPR and that Loubarria was briefly breathing and responsive before his condition declined, but those details are provisional.
- Mayor Zohran Mamdani and NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch visited the hospital and Police Benevolent Association president Patrick Hendry issued condolences and pledged support for Loubarria’s family.
- Officials say the medical examiner will determine the cause of death and the NYPD will review the incident, which follows standard practice when a recruit has a medical emergency during training.
