Teen suspect nabbed for fatally shooting 17-year-old Brooklyn boy last year



A teen suspect has been nabbed for fatally shooting a 17-year-old Brooklyn boy in the head last year, police said Tuesday.

Travis Scott, 18, is facing murder and weapon possession charges for allegedly shooting Rayshawn Hines in the head near the elevated 3 subway line at Chester St. and Livonia Ave. in Brownsville about 3:30 p.m. Nov. 26.

Medics rushed Rayshawn to Brookdale University Hospital, where he died the next day. He lived in Bedford-Stuyvesant, according to cops.

After Travis was identified as the shooter, members of the NYPD’s Brooklyn North Warrants Squad took him into custody Monday afternoon, cops said. A motive for the killing was not immediately disclosed.

Travis lives in Coney Island, cops say. His arraignment in Brooklyn Criminal Court was pending Tuesday.
