Police say 18-year-old Ameen Johnson was shot just before 1 a.m. in front of a bodega on East 172nd St.
A police source told News 12 that Johnson was sitting in a Honda Odyssey when a man wearing a yellow bike and helmet walked up to the car and fired his gun twice before riding off on an e-bike.
Citizen App video captured the NYPD responding to the scene after they say shots were detected by ShotSpotter technology.
