Sergeant John McCormick, 43, was killed on April 27, 1988, during the execution of a search warrant at an apartment at 24 Sickles Street in Manhattan. A 20-year NYPD veteran, he was standing in a doorway when shots were fired during a struggle between officers and a suspect armed with a .38-caliber revolver. McCormick’s wound proved fatal; investigators later determined the fatal shot came from a fellow officer’s weapon amid the violent encounter. The armed individual from the apartment was taken into custody and charged with murder in connection with Sergeant McCormick’s death.

McCormick’s death occurred just a week before he planned to retire, cutting short a long career and leaving a wife and son. Does anyone have additional information about the raid at 24 Sickles Street or the people involved?
