NYPD cops shot and killed a domestic violence suspect who fired at them on a Brooklyn street Thursday night, police said.

The fatal shooting unfolded after a police sergeant and another cop on patrol heard gunshots ring out while they in the area of West 36th Street and Mermaid Avenue in Coney Island around 10:15 p.m., the NYPD said.

As the two cops raced to the scene, they were approached by two women who told them a man was firing a gun at that intersection, NYPD’s Chief of Patrol Jeffrey Maddrey told reporters at a press conference early Friday morning.
