On October 12, 2024, at about 3:51 a.m., 27-year-old Jose Galloway was shot multiple times in front of a clothing store and buffet on Tilden Avenue in the Flatbush neighborhood of Brooklyn. Paramedics rushed Galloway, who lived on Wortman Avenue, to a hospital but he was pronounced dead. Witnesses reported hearing a rapid succession of roughly 15 gunshots.

Investigators found more than two dozen shell casings at the scene and noted nearby surveillance cameras, but the shooter or shooters were not identified in the immediate aftermath. As of late 2024, no arrests had been announced and the NYPD described the investigation as active.

If anyone saw activity in the strip mall area that pre-dawn Saturday or has footage from nearby cameras, please come forward with information.
