Around 12:15 AM, Friday, September 4, 2015: Fatal shooting on Prospect Place near Schenectady

quote:
Christopher Burgin, 29, was hit several times in the torso in front of 1308 Prospect Place at about 12:12 a.m., police said.

"I was cleaning up my basement and we heard three or four shots, 'Pop! Pop! Pop!' They were one after another,” said a 77-year-old woman who would only giver her first name, Merle.

“I went out on the block and he was on the ground in the middle of the street by a gray car. He was on his back. He didn't have his shirt on."

Burgin, who lived in Queens, was taken to Kings County Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

There were no immediate arrests and the investigation is ongoing.
