NYPD officers shot and wounded a 33-year-old armed suspect at a Queens home on Saturday after responding to a 911 call about a man with a shotgun. The incident followed an explosion in the garage of a two-story home on Ocean Crest Blvd. near Hartman Ln. in Far Rockaway, which injured more than a dozen people, including firefighters and civilians. The suspect, who ran out of the home holding a shotgun, was taken to a hospital with critical injuries. Two of his relatives were found dead inside the home, according to police sources. The fire, which spread to multiple buildings, left at least 21 people injured, including 17 firefighters and two EMS personnel. None of the injuries were life-threatening, officials said. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
