A 21-year-old man was fatally shot and another man was injured in a shooting on a Brooklyn street Thursday night, police said.
Officers from the 69th Precinct responded around 10:40 p.m. to a 911 call reporting an assault near 9323 Ave. L in Canarsie.
When they arrived, they found a 21-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the head and a 25-year-old man shot in the right leg, according to the NYPD.
