NYPD seeks man in fatal East Williamsburg shooting

The NYPD has released footage of a man wanted in connection to an East Williamsburg shooting that left one man dead and another injured.

The man is being sought for questioning over the June 14 shooting where a gunman targeted two men sitting inside a Ford Mustang at Morgan Avenue near Stagg Street at about 12:40 a.m.

The suspect demanded property from a 33-year-old passenger — and blasted him in the back when he refused, according to police.

Then he allegedly pistol-whipped the 38-year-old driver, and snatched a gold chain from him, while also swiping a gold chain from the passenger, cops said.

The older victim drove to Woodhull Medical Center, where the 33-year-old was pronounced dead, cops said. The driver suffered minor injuries, according to police.
