A 30-year-old man was shot and killed early Friday morning inside the doorway of an apartment in a Pomonok Houses building in Flushing, according to the police, marking the first borough murder of the new year.
Cops responded around 2:30 a.m. to a 911 call of a man shot inside the 71st Avenue development. When they arrived, police found the victim with a gunshot wound to his head. Emergency medical services personnel also responded and pronounced the victim, whose name was being withheld by investigators pending family notification, dead at the scene.
There were no arrests at press time, and the investigation was ongoing.
According to final CompStat statistics for 2014, shooting incidents ticked up compared to the previous year, but there was only one recorded homicide in the 107th Precinct all of last year.
