    This report states he was shot, and was alive when he arrived at KCH.     He is also 20, as opposed to 24.

    Bedford Avenue in Crown Heights. He was taken to Kings County Hospital
    in serious condition." image

    I know, right? I saw the police presence for myself on Friday and Thursday nights as I passed the Laundromat on Empire Boulevard. *shakes head*

    Let's see what Bratton has to say.
