The men arrested in connection with the death last week of a New York City Police Department Officer Jonathan Diller were indicted Monday on several charges including murder.
Guy Rivera, 34, was indicted for the first-degree murder of Diller and for first-degree attempted murder for allegedly trying to fire his weapon at an NYPD sergeant at the incident in Far Rockaway.
Lindy Jones, 41, was behind the wheel of the 2016 Kia Soul when Diller and Sgt. Sasha Rosen attempted to pull him over on March 25.
Diller and Rosen repeatedly asked Rivera to roll down the window before they were able to open the car door, prosecutors said.
Once they opened the door, Rivera allegedly pulled out a gun and shot Diller in the stomach. The man then pointed his gun at Rosen and tried to pull the trigger, but the loaded gun was jammed, prosecutors also said.
Diller later died at Jamaica Hospital and was laid to rest on Saturday.
