Four of the shots that cops fired at a madman waving a knife in Midtown failed to penetrate his jacket â€" which was not bulletproof â€" and the NYPD will now check the weapons for malfunction, law enforcement sources told The Post.
Wonder what grain hollowpoints they use and brand?A sergeant and an officer fired a total of nine rounds at 46-year-old Garry Conrad on Wednesday, with one of the shots killing the depressed Broadway stagehand who refused to drop the blade at West 49th Street and Eighth Avenue.
Four of the bullets got lodged in Conrad’s Carhartt jacket, sources said, adding that he was not wearing a bulletproof vest.
Another shot grazed the wrist of bystander Lauran Code, a 46-year-old lingerie designer from California.
