Gabriel Torres was inside his personal vehicle and about to leave for work when authorities said he was shot by a 15-year-old boy wearing camouflage clothing

The former cop was walking down a NYC street when he felt a “a hard shot” on the side of his head before the assailants fled

Among the shooter's victims were the shooter's brother and off-duty Raleigh Raleigh Police Officer Gabriel Torres

Two others, including a Raleigh Police Department K9 officer, were transported to a hospital

The victim's family claims the NYPD knew the officer "was psychologically unfit and a danger to others"

Police believe the motive behind the shooting stemmed from road rage, but the investigation is still ongoing
