Gunman who shot Jets player Kris Boyd in Midtown caught in Buffalo, sources say
"They proceed into the restaurant, NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said. They're in there for about 10-12 minutes. They don't like the vibe of the place. They're not feeling it. They decide to leave as they're walking back outside, once again, they're encountered by the same group of males who begin to verbally insult them. The verbal spat escalated into a physical altercation, according to Kenny."
"Amidst the chaos, two shots were fired, one of which struck Boyd in the abdomen. The bullet traveled into his lung and became lodged in his pulmonary artery, police confirmed. Boyd was originally in such serious condition that he could barely communicate before recovering. Both Charles and Sherwood, who were unharmed, remained on the scene after Boyd was shot, police said."
Police released surveillance footage and arrested a 20-year-old suspect who surrendered in Buffalo and is being questioned; charges are pending. The shooting occurred Nov. 16 in Midtown after Jets cornerback Kris Boyd and teammates Irvin Charles and Jamien Sherwood left Sei Less bar following a confrontation with a group outside. The group reportedly insulted the players about their clothing; a verbal spat escalated into a physical altercation and two shots were fired. Boyd was struck in the abdomen; the bullet traveled into his lung and lodged in his pulmonary artery. Boyd had been initially too critically injured to communicate but later recovered; Charles and Sherwood were unharmed and remained at the scene.
