Jersey City officer fatally shoots man who first opened fire at police, mayor says

Fulop said the confrontation happened near Ege and Bergen avenues when police saw the man "acting suspiciously," "noticed a bulge in his clothing consistent with a possible firearm" and approached him. That's when the man shot at the officer, who then returned fire and struck him, Fulop said. The man was later pronounced dead at the hospital, according to the mayor. Officials did not immediately identify the man or specify his age, but said no officers were hurt during the incident.
