A suspect had killed four of his family members at their Far Rockaway home and
slashed two police officers before cops shot him dead Sunday morning, according
to the NYPD.

Officers received a 911 call from a teenage girl who said her cousin “was
killing her family members” at 467 Beach 22nd Street, a multi–family
home, around 5:10 a.m. Sunday, NYPD Cheif of Department Jeffrey Maddrey said
during a press conference.

When responding officers arrived at the location, one cop was slashed in the
face by the suspect, who was attempting to leave the home with luggage in tow
while a second officer was slashed in the neck, Maddrey said.

A 28-year veteran officer then shot the suspect, killing him, according to the
NYPD.

After confronting the suspect, police had to wait for firefighters to arrive to
extinguish a fire that was preventing them from entering the home. 

Officers discovered a young child had died from her injuries right outside of
the home. Three other victims were then found dead inside of the home, all four
believed to have been stabbed to death, police added.

The injured NYPD officers were taken to Jamaica Hospital, where they were
expected to recover, according to sources.

The suspect, identified by police as 39-year-old Courtney Gordon, was taken to
the hospital and pronounced dead upon his arrival, police said.

Another stabbing victim was taken to local hospitals in critical condition,
according to the NYPD.

“This shows that police officers never know what they’re responding to, what’s
awaiting them on that scene. This scene was chaos; multiple victims, a house on
fire and a madman on a rampage, on a mission,” PBA President Patrick Hendry said
during an early morning press conference.

The fire is being investigated by FDNY Marshals.
