Cops are looking for the gunman
who shot and killed a Ridgewood
man across the street from the
victim’s home, police reported.
Law enforcement sources said the
shooting took place at around 10:52
p.m. on Aug. 30 along 60th Street
just south of Metropolitan Avenue.
Officers from the 104th Precinct,
while responding to a 911 call about
a man shot, found 23-year-old Alexander
Pedraja, of 60th Street, on the
ground with a gunshot wound to his
back.
Paramedics rushed Pedraja to
Elmhurst Hospital, where he died
from his injuries a short time later.
According to sources, detectives
are looking for two unidentified
male suspects who were seen fleeing
after the gunfire in a dark, fourdoor
sedan.
At this point in the investigation,
police have not publicly disclosed a
possible motive for the crime.
No arrests have been made, and
the investigation is ongoing.
