Christian Montrose, 19, was shot and killed in the early morning of March 19, 2024, just steps from his home on East 104th Street in the Canarsie neighborhood of Brooklyn. Surveillance footage shows a black sedan pull up, an individual exit the vehicle and fire multiple shots, striking Christian in the mouth and torso. He attempted to reach his front door but collapsed and later died at a nearby hospital.

Christian had no criminal record. Family members said he worked at a rental car company, loved cars, planned to enroll at Lincoln Tech to become a mechanic, and was the second-youngest of seven children, including a twin sister. Investigators have suggested the shooting may have been gang-related and possibly a case of mistaken identity; authorities have been searching for the black sedan but no arrests have been announced.

If anyone in Canarsie that night saw the black sedan, the shooter, or has information about who might have been responsible, please come forward.
