Jose Hernandez, a 24-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed in the lobby of 2020 Dorchester Road in Flatbush in the early morning hours of Sunday, October 19, 2025. Police say a dispute between Hernandez and another man turned physical, and during the altercation the other individual drew a gun and shot Hernandez in the chest. Hernandez was taken to Kings County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Officers from the 70th Precinct arrested a 22-year-old building resident, Yonathan Guzman, at the scene for questioning; a firearm was recovered. Police later charged Guzman with murder and criminal possession of a weapon, and a complaint says he was allegedly armed with a knife and a firearm when Hernandez was shot. Authorities said there was no apparent relationship between the victim and the suspect and have not released a motive.

Does anyone who lived at or near 2020 Dorchester Road in October 2025 have information about that night or the people involved?
