An NYPD captain in Brooklyn has been placed on modified assignment after he allegedly clocked out even though two fellow precinct offers had been wounded during a shootout.

Published reports say Capt. Scott Forster was three miles away from the scene of the shooting in Bed-Stuy that injured officers William Reddin and Paul Yurkiw Saturday morning following a chase with a New Jersey man, Jamal Funes. 

Forster allegedly left work rather than responding to the call about the shooting.

The NYPD is investigating the incident.
