The NYPD released additional video on Monday, March 28, and appealed to the public for help identifying a second person of interest sought for questioning in connection to the 2021 fatal shooting of Corey Allen, 28, of Mount Vernon in the Northeast Bronx.

 

On Saturday, Sept. 4, 2021 at around 3.28 a.m., police responded to a 911 call regarding a multiple shooting which took place opposite 2280 Tillotson Avenue (a gas station), in the area to the north of Co-op City. Upon arrival, officers observed a 28-year-old man, unconscious and unresponsive with a gunshot wound to the chest and a 35-year-old man, conscious and alert at the location.
