A man was shot to death at a Brooklyn NYCHA complex, police said Monday.
The victim was shot in the chest at the Albany Houses on St, Mark’s Ave. near Troy Ave. about 7:15 p.m. Sunday, cops said.
Medics rushed the victim to Kings County Hospital but he could not be saved. Cops were working to identify the victim, who had no ID on him but is believed to be in his 20s.
Two men, one wearing a gray hoodie, the other a blue hoodie, ran from the scene and are being sought.
Less than half a mile away, 25-year-old Kendell Friday was fatally shot in the head on St. John’s Place near Schenectady Ave. just before 5 a.m. Wednesday.
Friday, an out-of-work security guard, was just a couple blocks from the home he shared with his mother when he was killed. No arrests have been made.
Brooklyn’s 77th Precinct has seen 10 murders through Oct. 20, compared to six in the same timeframe last year — and two of this year’s slayings happened within a block of where Friday was killed.
On Sept 1, 37-year-old ex-con Donnell Thomas was shot in the chest just outside his apartment building on the same block where Kendell was slain.
And on Jan 24, Barrington Howell, also 37, was fatally stabbed in the neck a block away on Schenectady Ave. and Sterling Place. Jamel Miles 39, was later arrested for murder, robbery and weapons possession.
