NY State trooper suspended without pay as cops probe his story about being shot during LI traffic stop
Briefly

Authorities are investigating inconsistencies in Trooper Thomas Mascia's claim that he was shot during a traffic stop, with suspicions he may have shot himself.
The department's suspension of Mascia highlights concerns over his credibility, particularly as police cancel alerts for a suspect vehicle he described.
The investigation into Mascia includes a psychiatric evaluation, raising questions about his mental state and whether he fabricated the shooting incident.
Trooper Mascia's family ties to a former corrupt NYPD officer only add to the scrutiny as investigators examine the credibility of his shooting report.
