An NYPD officer rushed to the aid of a pizzeria worker who was shot in the leg during a robbery in Harlem. The suspect approached the 20-year-old employee, displayed a firearm and tried to take what was in the cash register. The employee was shot once in the upper leg before the suspect ran away without any cash. Officer Joshua Escobar arrived to the scene and realized the bullet hit the victim's artery. He wrapped a department-issued tourniquet around the employee's leg to help stop the bleeding.
