Authorities say that at 10:05 p.m. on Oct. 27, officers responded to a 911 call regarding a man shot in front of the Kingsborough Houses, located at 319 Kingsborough Walk 3. Upon their arrival, police found 16-year-old Amir Patterson with a gunshot wound to his chest.
Patterson was rushed by EMS to Interfaith Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The second shooting occurred hours later — at 12:02 a.m. on Oct. 28 police responded to a 911 call regarding a man shot inside the lobby of the Hughes Houses, located at 335 Sutter Avenue. When they arrived, officers found 34-year-old Marvin Carroway, a resident of the Hughes Houses, unconscious and unresponsive, with a gunshot wound to his head.
