A knife-wielding maniac was shot and injured by cops after he started terrorizing a New York City grocery store overnight, the NYPD said Monday.
The suspect was shot outside the City Fresh Market near 120th Street in Harlem just after 1:30 a.m. when he repeatedly refused to drop the 13-inch kitchen blade, according to cops.
The man had been thrown out of the grocery store some time earlier after getting into an argument with someone inside.
He later showed up brandishing the knife, police said.
Surveillance video obtained by Pix11 captured the man lingering outside the sliding doors and waving the weapon as workers huddled inside.
When police arrived on the scene, the man allegedly kept pointing the knife in their direction before an officer fired.
The knifeman took a bullet to his abdomen, cops said.
He was taken to a hospital for surgery and remains in a critical condition.
Police haven’t yet released his name or what charges he’ll face.
