Police shot and wounded an unarmed man in Brooklyn Monday night after he rushed at cops and pulled his hand from his waistband — refusing commands to show his hands, NYPD officials said. "We then see the man rush towards our officers while reaching into his waistband and quickly removing his hand." The shooting came after cops responded to reports of a man with a gun at Lenox Street and Bedford Avenue around 5:45 p.m., police said. When cops got to the scene they spotted a 60-year-old man holding a handgun and took him into custody, police said. The man, identified by sources as Viatamere Francois, was being arrested when McGarrell came up on the cops, Monahan said.
