In the predawn hours of New Year’s Eve, one teen was shot dead and two others were wounded when a Webster Avenue house party turned violent.

Officers from the 48th Precinct were called to the four-story building, at 2366 Webster Avenue,  just after 2 a.m. on Saturday to discover the wounded victims had been shot inside the building’s lobby.

The most seriously injured was a 19-year old male, shot three times to the torso and one time to the head. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Another 28-year old man was shot in the back and listed in stable condition at Jacobi Hospital. The third victim, an 18-year old male, was shot in the leg and transported to St. Barnabas Hospital, and was also reported as stable.

The victim was later identified as Shaneek “Boom” Young, 19, a life-long resident of the Pelham Parkway Houses who was described as a leader and keeper of the peace at the complex.

Hours after the killing, Young’s grief-stricken friends gathered outside his home and set up a make-shift memorial.

“He was always cracking jokes, I never heard anything bad about him,” said one neighbor, who said her own son was a friend of Young’s.

“That’s why I tell my son, I don’t like house parties,” she said.  “It’s too much for a parent too bare. Kids are supposed to be burying us, but we’re burying our kids now.”

Police continue to investigate the killing, but no arrests have been made. Police have not yet released a description of the shooter.
