"The NYPD said the shooting happened near the corner of Alexander Avenue and Bruckner Boulevard in Mott Haven just before 6 p.m. on Oct. 15. Cops reported that 27-year-old John Martinez, also known by his drill rap name Suave Drilly, was leaving the Division of Parole office when a group of men approached him and opened fire. Martinez was struck multiple times in the torso."
"Parole officers immediately rushed to Martinez's aid and contacted the 40th Precinct for assistance as they frantically attempted to keep a crowd from gathering around the victim. People were getting close, and they were like back up back up with their guns out, witness Clarisa Alayeto told ABC news. EMS attempted to render aid to Martinez and perform chest compressions before rushing him to Lincoln Hospital, where he was pronounced dead."
