Restricts police and peace officers' use of deadly physical force to situations where the suspect committed a felony that threatened or resulted in death or serious bodily injury, and the officer reasonably believes the person will cause death or serious bodily injury unless immediately apprehended

Eliminates previous justifications for deadly force that included felonies involving physical force, kidnapping, arson, first-degree escape, first-degree burglary, or suspects armed with firearms during arrest resistance

Requires officers to make reasonable efforts to identify themselves and warn that deadly force may be used before employing force, where feasible

Prohibits use of deadly force based solely on danger to the officer if an objectively reasonable officer would believe the person does not pose an imminent threat of death or serious bodily injury

Designated as the "New York police use of deadly force restraint act" and takes effect immediately upon passage
