DMX's funeral procession brought Brooklyn to a standstill on Saturday as bikers escorted the monster truck carrying his casket to a memorial service at the Barclays Center, two weeks after he died of a heart attack.

A huge black monster truck emblazoned with 'Long Live DMX' brought the body of the late rapper and New York native from his home town of Yonkers to the arena in Brooklyn, New York City, Saturday afternoon, where a large crowd of fans had gathered.

The vehicle was flanked by members of the Ruff Ryders rap label as well as hundreds of motorbikes, with DMX's shiny bright red coffin visible in the open air of the truck's trailer.

The American rapper and actor Earl Simmons, known by his stage name DMX or Dark Man X, died on April 9 at the age of 50.

He suffered a heart attack a week earlier at his home in White Plains, New York, after an apparent drug overdose.

Wreckage has been found in the hunt for the lost Indonesian submarine with 53 crew members after search teams discovered items from the sunken vessel, said the country's navy.

Rescuers found several items including parts of a torpedo straightener, a grease bottle believed to be used to oil the periscope and prayer rugs from the submarine, according to Navy Chief of Staff Admiral Yudo Margono.

He said: 'With the authentic evidence we found believed to be from the submarine, we have now moved from the sub miss phase to sub sunk.'

Indonesia earlier considered the submarine that disappeared on Thursday off Bali as missing, but it now declares the submarine as officially sunk with no hopes of finding any survivors.

Officials fear the vessel sank to the bottom of a trough with a depth of 2,300ft during the torpedo military exercise.

The navy has deployed a number of warships to search for the missing crew.

Military analyst Soleman Ponto said it is too early to determine the fate of the submarine conclusively.

'We don't know yet whether the communication equipments were broken or the submarine has sunken.

We have to wait for at least three days,' he said.

The navy requested help from other nations with submarine rescue vessels and Australia, Singapore and India have responded, the ministry said in a statement.

The search is currently being carried out by two Indonesian warships equipped with side-scan sonar, a tool used for mapping the seafloor, according to the Ministry of Defense.

The International Submarine Escape and Rescue Liaison Office (ISMERLO), an organization that facilitates an international response for distressed submarines, is also providing assistance, it said.

Several countries, including Australia, India and Singapore have offered to provide assistance.

Indonesia's Navy is searching for a missing submarine with 53 people on board that went missing during a military exercise on Wednesday and is seeking help from neighboring Australia and Singapore in the hunt, Indonesian authorities say.

The Indonesian Ministry of Defense stated the KRI Nanggala-402, a German-made submarine, lost contact during a torpedo drill in the Bali Strait a stretch of water between the islands of Java and Bali that connects to the Indian Ocean and the Bali Sea.

The submarine asked for permission to dive, or submerge, at 3 a.m. local time (3 p.m. ET) before losing contact.

'After permission was given to dive according to the procedure, the submarine lost contact and could not be reached,' Indonesia's Defence Ministry said.

Less than a minute after Cueva fled, a Homeland Security Investigations agent arrived on the scene and notified dispatch that Jarrott was down.

A 40-mile chase ensued, during which Cueva exchanged fire with officers from New Mexico State Police, the Cruces Police Department, the Dona Ana County Sheriff's Office, and US Border Patrol.

Cueva's truck is seen reversing wildly down the highway after being spun out by a patrol car.

Cueva leaps from the truck with his pistol drawn and crouches behind the hood of a police car as an officer kneels opposite him behind the trunk.

Dozens of shots were fired before Cueva is eventually seen lying beside the door of his truck as dozens of armed troopers crowd around aiming their weapons at him.

During the long shootout, a police officer, Adrian De La Garza was hit and wounded but was flown to the hospital by helicopter but his injuries were not life-threatening.

Officer Jarrott stopped Cueva, who police Department say had a 'violent criminal history' including drugs charges involving cocaine and meth, on February 4 on the eastbound Interstate 10 between Deming and Las Cruces after noticing his windows were tinted.

After walking over to the passenger side window of Cueva's white truck, footage shows the officer saying politely: 'Good afternoon, sir.

My name is Darrian Jarrott.

I'm with New Mexico State Police.

The reason for the stop is your window tint is a little too dark.'

Jarrott, a father of three small children whose partner was pregnant at the time of his death, says:

'Yeah, mind if I open the door? Or if you want to roll down the window more.'

In a brief conversation lasting around three minutes, the officer asks if Cueva had insurance, to which he replies 'yes', and confirms his name, before asking the criminal to come over to his patrol car so he could run checks.

Cueva opens his door, at which point officer Jarrott notices his rifle and asked,

'You have a firearm on you, do you mind if I take that off you, for my own safety?'

The officer then says, 'Let's go to my vehicle OK', at which point Cueva gets out from the driver's seat holding the rifle which officer Jarrott is unable to see because his view is blocked by the pick-up.

As both men slowly walk parallel with each other towards the patrol car, Cueva suddenly draws the rifle, with Jarrott shouting 'oh s***' before being hit.

The criminal then shoots him several more times off the camera and slowly pulls away, leaving the officer's dead body by the side of the road.

This is the moment a violent drug dealer jumped out of his truck and shot a father-of-three cop dead during a routine traffic stop before dying in a hail of bullets after a 40-mile chase.

Sickening footage shows violent criminal Omar Felix Cueva, 39, stepping out of the driver's side of his Chevrolet pick-up truck with an AR-15-style rifle before firing one shot at New Mexico officer Darrian Jarrott over the rear of the vehicle.

Officer Jarrott fell to the ground, at which point Cueva walked over to him and shot him several more times, including once point-blank in the head.

He then took off in his truck on a 40-mile police chase that saw him die in a hail of bullets.

Seconds before the officer had asked Cueva - who was on his way to a drug deal to hand over his rifle, which appears to have sparked his murderous act.
