The search continues for Jesus Acosta, the man police say they're looking for in connection to a Brooklyn and Bronx shooting just days apart.
American Best Wings and Pizza on Rockaway Parkway appeared closed on Thursday, with candles outside, following the shooting on Sunday around 12 a.m.
An employee was killed and another was wounded in the shooting. Police have identified 44-year-old M.D. Yousef as the man killed.
On Tuesday, police say Jesus Acosta went into a Bronx deli and fatally shot 33-year-old Tayvon Shuler. They say Acosta then robbed the deli.
News 12 previously reported that state records showed Acosta was released on parole approximately four months ago after serving an 11-year prison sentence for attempted murder.
Brooklyn resident Trinide Walls say she's heartbroken and confused how this could happen again.
“I don’t know how y’all let someone get that far and not catch them. That’s scary. I have a son, so it’s extra scary," said Walls.
The United Bodegas of America has offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to Acosta's arrest. The FBI has also announced a $25,000 reward for information leading to his arrest and conviction.
