Tyrone Melville, 41, and Jose Maldonado, 26, were both arrested on Wednesday after threatening the New York Police Department.
Six people have been arrested following the execution-style murders of two NYPD officers Dec. 20 by Ismaaiyl Brinsley, a black man allegedly seeking revenge for the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner. Brown was killed by police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, Mo., sparking massive protests across the country; and Garner was killed in Staten Island after being put in a chokehold by an NYPD officer.

Melville allegedly called Brooklyn’s 84th Precinct — where murdered officers Rafael Ramos, 40, and Wenjian Liu, 32, worked — and requested to speak to Ramos, asking if the bullets had been removed from his head so “he could kill more cops,” Reuters reports.
