Detectives are searching for
the drive-by killer who shot
a 25-year-old man to death
at a turning lane on Woodhaven
Boulevard in Glendale last week.
The incident happened at about
12:46 a.m. on Feb. 26 at the corner of
Woodhaven Boulevard and Myrtle
Avenue in Glendale, adjacent to Victory
Field in Forest Park.
According to law enforcement
sources, the victim was operating
a silver, four-door sedan while
stopped at a red light inside a leftturn
bay on the northbound side
of Woodhaven Boulevard when
the killer drove up alongside him
inside a black sedan.
Cops said the unidentified shooter
then opened fire, striking the
victim in the chest, before speeding
away from the scene.
Police said the victim managed to
turn his vehicle from Woodhaven
Boulevard onto Myrtle Avenue,
but was unable to complete the
turn — crashing his car into a street
lamp at the southwest corner of the
intersection.
Officers from the 102nd Precinct
and EMS units responded to
the scene. Paramedics rushed the
victim to Jamaica Hospital, where
he was pronounced dead. Police
have withheld his identity, pending
family notification.
At this point in the investigation,
detectives have not yet established
a possible motive for the shooting
— or a description of the shooter.
