BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — A driver accused of shooting at police officers during a long car chase through the streets of New York’s second-largest city has been arraigned on five counts of attempted murder. The wild March 29 chase in Buffalo resulted in three officers and suspect Kente Bell being struck. A prosecutor says two of the officers were hit by friendly fire. The prosecutor says Bell is partially paralyzed and drove a vehicle that did not require him to use his feet. A call seeking comment was made to Bell’s attorney. The prosecutor says there will be no criminal proceedings against the officers.
