Cops say an off-duty police officer was slashed in the chest with a knife after trying to break up a domestic dispute on Friday, December 11.
A police source told this paper that, early Friday afternoon, the officer observed a man physically assaulting a woman in broad daylight near 69th Street and Fort Hamilton Parkway.
It was then, the source said, that the cop intervened. But, as he reached for his phone to dial 911, the man allegedly told him, “If you call 911, I’m going to stab you.”
