Thousands of police officers line NYC streets to honour slain colleague

Thousands of New York City police officers gathered to mourn the death of NYPD policeman Didarul Islam, one of four people killed in Monday's shooting at an office building in New York City.

Islam, 36, was shot dead while providing security for the site on Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan.

Officials said he had migrated to the US from Bangladesh, had two children and was expecting a third with his pregnant wife. He died "a hero", they said.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul and New York City Mayor Eric Adams also were at the funeral.
