    The circumstances surrounding the shooting are also opaque – although sources say it began as an armed robbery at a store on Canal Street, near Eldridge Street, and the perp shot at the officers as they chased him toward Delancey Street.

    The NYPD confirmed that cops responded to a 911 call for a robbery at 91 Canal Street at about 4:15 p.m., but gave no further details.
