13 men shot, 3 of them die

THIRTEEN MEN were shot — three fatally — during a spate of overnight violence across Brooklyn, the Bronx and Manhattan Sunday, police said.

A 26-year-old man, whose name was being withheld pending family notification, died after he was shot several times in the chest on E. 95th St. shortly after he left a nearby house party on Conklin Ave. in Canarsie, Brooklyn, just after 2 a.m., police said.

“I was walking home and then I heard shots,” said a witness who didn’t give his name. “This guy just dropped.”

The victim was taken to Brookdale University Hospital but could not be saved, officials said. A .40-caliber handgun and at least three shell casings were discovered at the scene.

About 20 minutes later a gunman wearing a bandana over his face blasted Akming Albritton, 25, several times in the torso as he stood among a group of friends on North Elliot Place near Flushing Ave. — about three blocks from his Sands St. home in Fort Greene, police said.

The shooter fled the scene. Albritton died at Methodist Hospital, police said.

In Crown Heights, a 26-year-old man was fatally shot outside a home on Prospect Place near Utica Ave. shortly after 3:40 a.m., police said.

He was rushed to Interfaith Medical Center, where he died, officials said. His name was not immediately released.

The morning mayhem began in the Bronx, when four men were shot around E. 156th St. and St. Ann’s Ave. in Morrisania just after 12:30 a.m., officials said.

All four men were in stable condition. It was not immediately clear what spurred the attack.

About an hour later in Brooklyn, a 29-year-old man was shot in the chest and right shoulder on Stanley Ave. near Schenck Ave. in East New York just after 1:30 a.m., officials said. He was taken to Brookdale University Hospital and listed in stable condition.

Shootings also occurred in Carroll Gardens, where two people were shot just after 5 a.m.; in the Crotona section of the Bronx, where a 22-year-old man was shot in the torso; in Williamsbridge, where a teen, 16, was shot in the right hand; and in Harlem, where copswereinvestigatingtheshootingofaman onFrederickDouglassBlvd.andW.155thSt. at about 6:20 a.m.
