NYPD officer shoots armed woman inside Queens home during response to stabbing, home invasion

Unanswered questions about that chaos that led police to open fire in South Ozone Park. Good evening, everyone. I'm Arthur Chien. Tonight, investigators are still trying to fill in the blanks as that neighborhood remains stunned by what's happened. Fox 5's Nikki Hauser is live for us at the scene with what we know right now. Good evening, Nikki. Hey, Arthur. Yeah, it's quiet now on 149th Street, but that was certainly not the case at this home right behind me. Last night, we know that four people were stabbed and one woman was shot by a police officer. That's according to law enforcement. I want to show you what it looked like last night. Here's video from that crime scene. Police tell us this all started as a reported break-in. Two people with stab wounds called for help from the third and second floors of that home. A woman throwing keys to law enforcement to let them inside. It was in a small bedroom that they found three people injured and on top of one another. Police say they told them to put their hands up, but the woman with a knife in her hand wouldn't comply and moved towards officers. That's when she was shot by an officer. A family friend we ran into says he's known the family for 30 years, though, and the homeowner, he says, has been an upstanding member of society. My heart is with the family. We like to keep them in our prayers and pray that everything works well. I understand his daughter's in the hospital and we will definitely have to pray for her. We'll be praying for her and the whole family. I hope the situation works out to the best. Arthur, the woman and all three men went to the hospital. Law enforcement tells us that that woman is in stable condition tonight. They also tell us that they don't believe that the woman involved was initially involved in the stabbing at the beginning or the reported home invasion.
