Overview
- A 21-year-old man was shot once in the head outside 413 East 187th St. in the Bronx and later died at Saint Barnabas Hospital.
- Officers from the NYPD’s 48th Precinct responded to a 911 report and found the victim on the sidewalk before EMS transported him to the hospital.
- Surveillance video obtained by ABC7 shows a person dressed all in black appearing to stalk the victim just before a single shot, and detectives say the gunman ran off on foot.
- No arrests have been announced, and detectives are actively circulating the footage while asking the public to submit confidential tips to Crime Stoppers, the Spanish hotline, the online form, or @NYPDTips.
- Investigators classify the killing as execution-style, and the probe by Bronx detectives could prompt a focused manhunt and continued community appeals for witnesses.
