A man in Brooklyn was shot dead in a hail of bullets early on Saturday morning.
Police said the victim was gunned down near the Old Navy Outlet store and the Flaming Grill and Buffet at 2163 Tilden Ave. in Flatbush at about 3:51 a.m. on Oct. 12.
Officers from the 70th Precinct, in responding to a 911 call about the shooting, found the 27-year-old male victim with multiple gunshot wounds about his body.
EMS rushed him to Kings County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead a short time later. Police have yet to reveal the man’s identity, pending family notification.
Through Oct. 6, the 70th Precinct reported just two homicides year-to-date, down from five at the same point in 2023, according to the most recent CompStat report. Shootings were also down 20%, from 10 at the same point last year to 8 this year.
Well after sunrise Saturday, NYPD Crime Scene Unit members were scouring the area for evidence, placing down more than two dozen shell casing markers at the scene.
So far, no arrests have been made in the ongoing investigation, police said.

Brooklyn Children’s Museum is joining forces with the North American Indigenous Center of New York to host an immersive two-day program celebrating Indigenous Peoples’ Day.
Families can visit the center on Oct. 13 and 14 to check out storytelling programs, live Native American music and dance performances, craft workshops, and a marketplace exclusively featuring Native artisans.
Attendees will be stunned to see hoop dances, a traditional Native American show performance by the Northeastern Haudenosaunee Dance Troupe.
Those looking for a more hands-on experience can head to one of the food demonstrations to learn how to make cultural dishes and drinks or attend a beadwork, corn husk doll making, or terra cotta pottery session.
Atiba T. Edwards, president and CEO of BCM, said that he and his team look forward to hosting Brooklyn families for a weekend of celebration and learning.
“This event provides an opportunity for children and families to learn directly from Native artists and cultural leaders,” Edwards said. “At BCM, we foster respect, understanding, and appreciation for the diverse communities of our borough, offering young people an immersive experience in the art, history, and customs of their own cultural traditions and those of their neighbors.”
Guests are welcome from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on both days.
Tickets start at $15 for general admission and $14 for grandparents. More information is listed online.

Brooklyn detectives apprehended the two suspects accused of beating a homeless man to death and injuring another as they slept in a supermarket parking lot last month.
Francisco Corocoj, 25, and Manuel Perez, 49, were taken into custody on Friday for the heinous attack in which both victims were bludgeoned with a baseball bat and metal pipes, authorities said.
The suspects, police said, reside at the Harlem YMCA shelter on West 135th Street. They were charged with first-degree manslaughter, as well as second-degree assault and criminal possession of a weapon.
Law enforcement sources said the assault occurred at around 7 p.m. on Sept. 18, as the two victims, ages 38 and 42, slept in the ShopRite supermarket parking lot at 1080 McDonald Ave. in Borough Park.
Police said the suspects, identified as Corocoj and Perez, allegedly approached the victims and began striking them repeatedly with the baseball bat and pipes.
Both perpetrators fled by the time officers from the 66th Precinct and EMS arrived at the scene. There, the cops found the 42-year-old man with cuts and bruising to his head and body, and the 38-year-old man — later identified as Cos Jervis Jonas Ajpuac —with swelling to his legs and stomach; he was later determined to have sustained internal bleeding.
EMS rushed both men to Maimonides Medical Center. While the 42-year-old man was treated and released, Ajpuac’s condition took a turn for the worse, and he died of his injuries on Oct. 2. Following an autopsy, the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner’s office classified his death as a homicide.
Police on Oct. 9 released photos and video of Corocoj and Perez; cops said the perps were known to frequent the area around McDonald Avenue and Ocean Parkway.
Homicides have doubled in the 66th Precinct year to date from 2023, according to the latest police data. Last year saw two reported murders compared to four during the same time period this year.
Total violent crime in the area, including murder, rape and robbery, is also up 2.31%, per the data.
