Bronx detectives are looking for the suspect who shot a 44-year-old man to death inside an apartment building lobby on Saturday evening.
Law enforcement sources said the victim took a fatal bullet to his neck inside the lobby of a building within the Mill Brook Houses at 584 East 137th St. in Mill Basin at about 6:21 p.m. on Dec. 4.
Officers from the 40th Precinct and NYPD PSA 7 found the wounded man while responding to a 911 call about an assault.
EMS rushed the victim to Lincoln Hospital, where he was pronounced dead a short time later. Police have withheld his identity, pending family notification.

So far, no arrests have been made in the ongoing investigation, authorities said.
