NEW The 14-year-old boy who was shot in the head outside an East Harlem deli while saying goodbye to his old neighborhood has died, police said, while another teen is recovering from injuries he suffered as well
The shooting occurred just before 4:30 p.m. on East 128th Street between Lexington Avenue and Park Avenue, as the teens went to a deli for a few moments to buy snacks, police said. As they were leaving, the gunman was at the street corner and fired at them.
The 14-year-old, identified as Justin Streeter, was shot in the head, and cellphone video showed police desperately trying to save him as he laid on the ground. The teen was taken to Harlem Hospital where he later died, police said early Wednesday morning. A 15-year-old boy was also shot, struck in the leg by a bullet as he ran away. He was expected to recover, police said, after a good Samaritan helped with his injuries.
