Monday evening at a news conference, Mayor Eric Adams declared the cop dead.
“We lost Jonathan tonight, and talking to Stephanie, his wife, had a profound effect. It reminded me of when I first started serving as mayor and had a conversation with the families of cops Rivera and Mora.
Officer Diller (31), according to Police Commissioner Edward Caban, “was shot doing the job we asked him to do.” He exposed himself to danger. In an effort to safeguard the individuals we serve and to keep his fellow New Yorkers safe, he moved toward the danger. Without a doubt, we shouldn’t be at this place at this time. For this reason, even though we shouldn’t be here, we are praying for the life of an NYPD officer.”
