NYC SUSPECT ON SCOOTER KILLS 87-YEAR-OLD MAN, INJURES 3 MORE IN BROAD DAYLIGHT
SHOOTING RAMPAGE: POLICE


A MAN WALKING ON JAMAICA AVENUE WAS SHOT TO DEATH IN THE BACK


By Andrea Vacchiano | Fox News

A scooter-riding gunman shot four victims in the Brooklyn and Queens boroughs of
New York City on Saturday morning, police say.

The rampage began in Cypress Hills at around 11:10 a.m., when the 25-year-old
male suspect shot a 21-year-old man in the shoulder. Around 20 minutes later,
the gunman fatally shot an 87-year-old man once in the back on Jamaica Avenue
near 108th Street.

The man was transported to Jamaica Hospital and succumbed to his wounds. Police
say the gunman also fired randomly at a crowd of people on 108th Street, but did
not strike anyone.

"We don't know the motive…If you look at the demographics and pedigree of the
victims, they're all different," Kenny said. "At this time, video shows that
he's not targeting anybody. He's not following anybody as he's driving on his
scooter, he's randomly shooting people."
