NYPD cop suspended for using an illegal choke hold arrested again, this time for firing his weapon at the Atlantic Ocean

A suspended New York City police officer was arrested early Sunday morning when police responded to a report of gunshots and found the officer and three friends leaving the beach after firing a weapon at the Atlantic Ocean, the Associated Press reports.

David Afanador, 39, a 16-year veteran of the NYPD, had a loaded Beretta 9 mm handgun and three loaded 15-round magazines on him when he was arrested at 6:50 a.m. Sunday.  Police did not specify what weapon Afanador fired at the ocean, or if the ocean did anything to provoke the officer.

Afanador and a woman in the group were arrested.  Afanador was charged with criminal possession of a weapon and prohibited use of a weapon. He was also cited for possession of alcohol, which is banned at Ocean Beach Park, for carrying an open can of Truly Hard Seltzer.  The woman was charged with criminal possession of a weapon and prohibited use of a weapon. 

Afanador’s court appearance on these counts will be April 2nd.  He is already scheduled to appear in court Wednesday on charges that he used an illegal chokehold on a Black man during an incident last June at the Rockaway Beach boardwalk.  He is facing strangulation and attempted aggravated strangulation charges in that case, for which he was suspended without pay.

In 2016, Afanador was charged for pistol-whipping a 16-year-old boy, breaking off two of the boy’s teeth.  He was charged with assault in that case, but a jury acquitted him and he was reinstated to the force.
