Buffalo, N.Y. — On May 23, 2026, Buffalo Police Officers traveling north on Deshler Street toward Broadway were flagged down by a pedestrian. The pedestrian pointed out a suspect wanted for the stabbing of her boyfriend that allegedly happened the day before on May 22. As they approached the suspect, 35-year-old Derrick Harris, officers observed that he was armed with a box cutter in one hand and a pair of scissors in the other hand. Officer Simonian, who was riding in the same patrol vehicle with Officer Slupinski, confronted Harris immediately, and tried to talk him down. After Harris failed to drop the box cutter and scissors, Officer Simonian pulled out his department-issued sidearm, prompting the suspect to then tell officers to "shoot me!" After Officer Simonian attempted to detain Harris, he then stabed the officer in the back with the box cutter. At the same time, Officer Slupinski deploys his taser, which was able to bring Harris down to the ground. Following a brief attempt to further detain Harris and arrest him, Harris breaks free from both officers and then runs into traffic on Broadway while still holding onto the weapons. Both officers then pursued Harris into the street before Officer Simonian discharged his firearm twice, striking Harris. Officers on scene immediately rendered medical aid to Harris for gunshot wounds to the hip and torso as well a stab wounds to the chest and neck. Officer Simonian was transported to Erie County Medical Center in a police vehicle to be treated for a stab wound to the back. Buffalo Fire and AMR personnel arrived on scene and continued providing first aid. Harris was subsequently transported by AMR to ECMC, where he remains hospitalized. Harris has been charged with first degree robbery for robbing a Lyft driver, while additional charges remain pending.
