The incident happened on Wednesday, May 31 around 8:20 p.m. in Yonkers in the area of 55 Morris St., according to Yonkers Police.

At that time, two victims in a black sedan were shot at through the car's driver's window. This resulted in a 19-year-old Yonkers man being hit at least two times, including once in the chest, and an 18-year-old Yonkers man being struck at least once in his leg.

First responders soon arrived at the scene and rendered CPR to the 19-year-old, who was then brought to a local hospital where he died from his injuries. His name has not yet been released by authorities.

The second victim was brought to a local area trauma center in stable condition and is expected to recover, police said.

Detectives are now working to find the suspect. Anyone with any information is asked to call the Yonkers Police Detective Division at (914) 377-7724 or text "YPD" and their tip to CRIMES (274637).
