The victim was shot in the chest on St. John’s Place near Troy Ave. in Crown Heights.
His killing took place around the corner from the site of a homicide from earlier this year. On Jan. 24, 37-year-old Barrington Howell was knifed to death by a mugger on Sterling Place near near Schnectady Ave. Cops arrested Jamel Miles, 34, and charged him with Howell’s murder.
The shooting marks the eighth homicide in the 77th Precinct this year. The precinct saw seven slaying in all of 2023.
