Police are now questioning two people in connection with the shooting and robbery of an off-duty police officer in Brooklyn earlier this week.

Police say Officer Tramaine Oxley, 33, was sitting in a Range Rover with some relatives when a dark BMW pulled up behind them Tuesday night in East New York.

Investigators say two men got out of the BMW and robbed the officer and his family at gunpoint.

"At that point the Range Rover left the scene to get away from the people that just robbed them. They made a U-turn and on the way back the people that robbed them were in the middle of the street. At one point shots were fired at the Range Rover and an additional point, our off-duty MOS fired four rounds at the people around him," said NYPD Chief of Department James O'Neill.

Oxley is being treated at the hospital for a gunshot wound to his left arm and a graze wound to the chest. 

He is expected to make a full recovery.
