A gang suspect was killed and a veteran detective was critically injured during an anti-gun task force sting operation-gone-wrong in Yonkers. Detective Brian Menton, who was assigned to the Westchester County Safe Streets task force, was conducting a sting operation to buy a firearm inside a convenience store around 2 p.m. on Wednesday. As he went to arrest three suspects alongside several fellow officers, one of the men tried to push past and escape, cops said. That's when one of the suspects fired a shot from his pocket, striking Menton.
