Miguel Zuniga, 22, was fatally shot inside the lobby of 708 Kingsborough 7 Walk in the Kingsborough Houses in Weeksville, Brooklyn, just before 11 p.m. on June 29, 2016. Responding officers found him with gunshot wounds to the head and back; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Family and friends remembered Miguel as sweet, generous and happy. His mother, who adopted him at age two, described the loss of a beautiful son. Loved ones set up a makeshift memorial near the lobby, and his family said they had tried to keep him away from the neighborhood violence that ultimately claimed his life.

The New York Police Department opened a homicide investigation and appealed for public tips; initial reports indicated no arrests or identified suspects. If anyone saw or heard anything in the Kingsborough Houses on the night of June 29, 2016, or has information that could help Miguel’s family, please come forward.
