Man, 38, gunned down on Brooklyn street

A 38-year-old man was fatally shot on a Brooklyn street early Friday, police said.

Cops responding to a report of a shooting at Pilling St. and Broadway in Bedford Stuyvesant at about 1:20 a.m. found the victim shot in the stomach.

EMS rushed the victim to Brookdale University Hospital Medical Center, where he died an hour later. Police did not disclose his name as they tracked down his family.

The gunman, described as a dark-skinned man with a green jacket, ran off and was last seen running south on Bushwick Ave.

Cops searching the area found the suspect’s green jacket, along with a gun and one shell casing outside a home on Bushwick Ave. around the corner from the shooting.

No arrests have been made.

Cops remained at the crime scene Friday morning, looking over a black Jeep Cherokee with several bullet holes.
