Detectives in Brooklyn are looking for the suspect who shot a 29-year-old man and threw him out of a moving vehicle early on Sunday morning.
The unidentified victim took a bullet to his thigh, but apparently bled out and died of his injuries a short time later at Kings County Hospital, law enforcement sources said.
Officers from the 67th Precinct found the wounded victim at about 5:53 a.m. on Oct. 17 in front of a building at 844 Clarkson Ave. in East Flatbush. The location includes a church on the ground floor.
Police sources said the victim was apparently shot moments earlier and thrown out of a moving vehicle at the location. The make and description of the automobile were not yet known.
Detectives are working to determine the circumstances surrounding the shooting, and a possible motive, law enforcement sources said.
So far, no arrests have been made in the ongoing investigation, police said.
