B’klyn shoot susp nabbed in Indiana

A Brooklyn man is charged with firing bullets that killed an 18-yearold man on his way to a vigil for a gunshot victim and paralyzed a 33-year-old innocent bystander.

Jadis Saint-Victor, 20, blasted away near the corner of Ocean and Woodruff Aves. near Prospect Park last Aug. 19, officials said Friday.

Police video shows someone in the driver’s seat of a silver BMW SUV aiming a gun outside the window and firing off six or seven shots.

Saint-Victor is accused of fatally shooting Malcolm Amede, 18 (photo), who was on his way to a memorial for an acquaintance, Paul Pinkney, who was shot dead a week earlier shortly after he left another such vigil himself.

Amede was also armed, and may have traded gunfire with Saint-Victor, officials said. The men were believed to have been gang rivals.

Saint-Victor’s second victim was Sam Metcalfe, a 33-year-old man who was hit by a bullet as he and his wife stepped out of their home on an errand to buy toothpaste, authorities said.

After the shooting, Saint-Victor escaped to Marion County, Ind., cops said. Members of a Regional Fugitive Task Force tracked him down to the Hoosier State, where he was taken into custody on July 12.

Police brought Saint-Victor back to Brooklyn on Thursday. He was charged with murder, assault and gun possession.

When he fled, Saint-Victor left in his wake the grieving friends and family of the man he killed, and a second victim struggling to recover from his paralysis.

Relatives said Amede lived a difficult life from a young age. But he had a good heart, his cousin said.

“Malcolm was the quiet type until you know him, and then he had a big heart and always had you laughing,” said Fross Amede.

Metcalfe was released from the hospital in December and is undergoing intense physical therapy, according to an online fundraiser outlining his recovery.

“I still have a long way to go as my injury heals but I am out of the woods,” Metcalfe wrote on his GoFundMe page. “It’s been hard adjusting but I am able to do more and more every day.

“I have had some muscle function return in my left leg! ... It is a positive sign that I have some functional return this early.”
