Investigators say the victim and a friend were walking down the block when the shooter got out on the passenger side of a silver Ford F-150. He jumped back in the truck after the shooting and fled north on Walker Street.

No arrests had been made as of Tuesday. The investigation is ongoing with Northeast Detectives. ••
