A trio of plainclothes cops who showed up at a Brooklyn hospital seeking care felt disrespected by staff there, leading to NYPD leadership registering their unhappiness over how they were treated, the Daily News has learned. The narcotics detectives came to NYU Langone Health-Cobble Hill in Brooklyn to be checked out after a suspect they apprehended spat blood on them, police sources said. Exactly what transpired between the cops and hospital staff remains unclear.

Located within Tisch Hospital, the Pediatric Emergency Department is part of Hassenfeld Children's Hospital at NYU Langone. It is a dedicated kids-only ER with 24/7 pediatric-specific emergency care, staffed by pediatric-trained emergency doctors and nurses. Before you go, you can view waiting times, which are posted on the website and updated every 5 minutes. Kids get a quick initial screening by a pediatric emergency specialist as soon as they arrive, and then are moved into a treatment room right away.

NYU Langone is investing $650 million to expand the Long Island hospital in Patchogue, transforming it into a modern regional healthcare hub.
