NEW YORK — A Bergenfield police officer is in stable condition after he was shot at point-blank range trying to break up a robbery in the Bahamas.
A colleague tells WNBC-TV in New York John Casper was on vacation and walking with three friends in Nassau when they saw a robbery in progress.
The friend says the 49-year-old confronted the suspect and a second suspect shot Casper in the chest Wednesday night.
There’s no word on any arrests.
