Surveillance video released by the NYPD in an email titled "Good Arrest" shows what does in fact appear to be a pretty good arrest. Shortly before 10 p.m. on Monday, two plainclothes cops were on patrol near Featherbed Lane and Nelson Avenue in the Bronx when they heard a gun shot and saw people running. The NYPD says the officers raced toward where the gunshot was heard, where they found a man holding a gun. He fired another round, and they gave chase on foot.

The officers, Harry Delacruz and Cesar Gomez, identified themselves as police and bravely advanced on the gunman, ordering him not to move. Here's the video:





No further shots were fired. The NYPD identified the suspect as Bronx resident Edward Chatman, 31. He's charged with criminal possession of a weapon, reckless endangerment, and other charges. The NYPD also released a photo of the .357 caliber Ruger stainless steel revolver allegedly recovered from Chatman.

An NYPD spokesman was unable to say who Chatman's intended target may have been, but there were no reported injuries. Chatman's prior arrests include busts for sale of a controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance, marijuana possession, forgery, DWI, and DWAI.
