Man shot to death, woman wounded, outside Bronx bodega
The 30-year-old man was shot in the chest and a 42-year-old woman blasted in the leg on Willis Ave. near E. 138th St. in Mott Haven about 8:30 p.m. Saturday, police said
The two victims were strangers to each other, cop sources said.
Medics took both to Lincoln Hospital but the man could not be saved. The woman is in stable condition, cops said.
Four years ago, one man was killed and another wounded outside the same bodega. Charles Wilkins, 24, was shot about a dozen times while a 20-year-old man was struck in the leg after they stepped out of the deli on May 18, 2021. A gunman got out of a four-door sedan, opened fire and kept shooting as the two victims ran for cover.
Saturday's slaying marks the sixth homicide in the Bronx's 40th Precinct this year, which saw six murders through May 4 last year, and 14 in all of 2024, NYPD statistics show.
Police have made no arrests in Saturday's shooting.

Multiple people were shot and killed at a market in the Thai capital of Bangkok on Monday afternoon, police said. A post on the official Facebook page of the Royal Thai Police says there were at least six fatalities, including the gunman who took his own life.
