4 shot at Brooklyn train station when officers open fire at man trying to avoid paying fare

"Four people were wounded at a Brooklyn train station Sunday when police officers shot at a man [allegedly] threatening them with a knife, authorities said. The people hit by police gunfire included the man with the blade, one of the officers and two innocent bystanders."

I won't bother quoting any more of what the police say happened, because we know they're full of shit. For all I know they're lying about the man having a knife and threatening them.

I can't find a non-paywalled source for this but,

To repeat myself "we know [the police] are full of shit". They didn't just graze a bystander, they caused serious injury.
