VIDEO: Cop Near Clinic Yells 'Shoot Your F-ing Heroin And Die'

SOHO, NY — The NYPD is investigating a video of a cop who had his gun drawn while cursing out a group of men near a Soho methadone clinic, ordering them to "shoot your f--king heroin and die," a disturbing video posted on social media shows.

The clip shows an officer approaching the men at Prince and Crosby streets on Aug. 31 with his gun in his left hand, according to the video posted by Twitter user AntifaSevenHills.

“Take a f--king walk right now,” the cop shouts as he holsters his weapon. “I’ll knock you the f--k out.”

“There’s no reason to pull out a gun,” one of the men says as the officer turns to walk away.

The cop storms off and yells, "Go shoot your f--king heroin and die,” the video shows. The officer was apparently responding to a quarrel between the men.

“This officer responded to a minor scuffle at a methadone clinic in SOHO today with his gun out & ready to use on folks seeking help. He then told these human beings to ‘shoot your f----- heroin and die,'" the Twitter user wrote.

“IDENTIFY THIS PIG!” the tweet continued.

An NYPD spokesman told Patch that the cop's commanding officer is aware of the situation and is investigating the video.

The altercation occurred roughly two blocks away from a methadone clinic on Lafayette Street near Spring Street. An employee at the Lafayette Medical Approach was aware of the video but declined to comment further.
