NYPD Sergeant Erik Duran was charged with second-degree manslaughter, assault, and criminally negligent homicide after allegedly throwing a cooler at a fleeing drug suspect, resulting in the suspect's death. Duran pleaded not guilty and was released on a $150,000 bond. The incident occurred during a buy-and-bust operation in The Bronx, and Duran's lawyers claim he was trying to prevent harm to pedestrians and officers. The charges have sparked controversy, with the union criticizing the prosecution and Black Lives Matter expressing dissatisfaction with the delay in justice. Duran is set to appear in court again on April 18.
