NEW YORK - A man accused of shooting an off-duty NYPD officer in 1999 will be extradited to New York after his arrest in Florida, but it's not clear when that will happen.
Authorities say Lester Pearson was living under an assumed name in Jacksonville.
He allegedly shot officer Vincent Ling in the Bronx back in 1999.
Investigators say Pearson shot Ling in the chest over a fight involving Ling's sister, who used to date Pearson.
