Salvador PJ Martinez, 27, was fatally shot on the evening of September 27, 2023, in Brooklyn. Martinez, a Hispanic man who had recently moved to Kensington and designed his own clothing line, had stopped near the Marcy Houses in Bedford-Stuyvesant after buying food from a bodega to chat with friends when an unidentified person approached and opened fire. He was struck in the torso, taken to Kings County Hospital, and pronounced dead.

Family remembered Martinez as sweet and respectful with a promising future in fashion. If anyone was near Marcy Houses that night or has information that could help the investigation, please come forward.
