Just under the nose of the New York Police Department (NYPD), a man who is yet to be identified was shot dead in broad daylight on Sunday in the Upper West Side. According to the NYP, he was 27 years old.
The gunfire rang out during an argument around 12:15 p.m. at 101st Street and Amsterdam Avenue — one block from the NYPD’s 24th precinct, according to cops.
The unidentified man was pronounced dead at the scene and the shooter fled.
Photographs from the scene show the man seated in a white Mercedes with a sheet draped over his body and a distraught woman nearby.
The violence comes as the NYPD is set to begin putting more cops on duty at night Monday to help stem shootings ahead of the summer months.
