Overview

• Police said Kevin Dubuisson, 28, faces robbery, attempted robbery, assault, menacing and related charges, with arraignment in Queens Criminal Court pending.
• The confrontation unfolded around 8:50 a.m. on the Whitestone Expressway service road as patrol officers and Queens South narcotics detectives boxed in a Toyota Highlander tied to an alleged carjacking.
• Three patrol officers opened fire as the suspect tried to drive off, striking Det. Corey Fisher in the hand and leg in crossfire; he is conscious and expected to recover.
• Dubuisson was taken into custody uninjured and no gun was recovered at the scene, though victims reported he appeared to display a firearm and the Uber driver was beaten with a metal object.
• Officials cited Dubuisson’s record of about 10 prior arrests and four felony convictions, noting he was on parole after a March release and was given a desk-appearance ticket for fare evasion the day before, as the NYPD conducts an internal investigation.
