Friendly Fire in Brooklyn Patrol | New York City News
Description
An NYPD detective, Robert Karroll, narrowly escaped serious injury after being accidentally shot by fellow officers during a Fourth of July patrol in Brooklyn. The incident occurred when an 18-year-old, Camani Bartletto, allegedly fired at an Uber and fled—prompting officers to chase him down and use a Taser. One of the officers’ shots struck Karroll’s bulletproof vest, leaving only a bruise. Bartletto, who has no prior record in NYC but a past arrest in New Jersey, is now facing multiple charges including attempted murder. The chaos unfolded so quickly that no body cameras were activated. Karroll, a 20-year veteran and father of three, was treated and released. Another officer sustained minor injuries, but no one else was hurt.
