Shaneka Thompson Recovering After Shooting

A woman who dated NYPD executioner Ismaaiyl Brinsley less than a year before his murderous rampage isn’t dead as originally thought, but recovering in a hospital.

Brinsley shot 29-year-old Shaneka Thompson in the stomach Saturday before going to New York to kill two cops.

The NY Post reports:

The ex-girlfriend of the gunman who fatally ambushed two NYPD cops after shooting her in the stomach banged on a neighbor’s door, yelling, “I can’t die like this! Please help me!”

Shaneka Thompson, 29, the only survivor of Ismaaiyl Brinsley’s murderous rampage, pleaded for help from Yevette Seay, who saw the bloodied victim through her peephole and called 911.

“I told her to hang in there. I was afraid to ask her too many questions because she was hysterical,” Seay told the Associated Press.

Thompson, an Air Force reservist of Owings Mills, Md., was in critical condition at the University of Maryland Medical Center.

“She’s not in any danger anymore,” her granddad, James Delly, told The Post. “Hopefully, she will make a full recovery.”

Brinsley shot Thompson about 5:45 a.m. Saturday after entering her home with a key he wasn’t supposed to have, the Wall Street Journal reported.

He then fled with her cellphone to New York City, where he executed NYPD officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu in what investigators believe was a bid to avenge the deaths of Eric Garner and Michael Brown.

Seay said she had heard her neighbors fight before, but that she got out of bed Saturday morning because of the screaming.

“I could hear something going on and it wasn’t pleasant. Then I heard some screaming, then she went out onto her balcony and screamed for help,” Seay said.

Thompson yelled: “He shot me! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die.”

Seay said Thompson pleaded for her to open her door, but she kept it closed because she didn’t know what was happening.

Cops arrived about seven minutes after her 911 call, she said.

Brinsley called Thompson’s mother about 6 a.m. to say the shooting was accidental and that he hoped she would recover, NYPD Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce said.
