Fox News, New York :
Four people, including a young child, were shot to death in a Brooklyn apartment on Wednesday, hours before students throughout New York City participated in walkouts to protest gun violence.
Investigators were trying to determine whether the deaths were three homicides and a suicide, according to police spokesman Stephen P. Davis. The child was a girl between the ages of 1 and 2; the other victims were a male apparently in his late teens, a man apparently in his 50s, and a man apparently in his late 20s, according to
The New York Times . A relative found their bodies around 5 a.m. at a high-rise complex, the Riverdale Osborne Towers. Brownsville has long been one of New York City’s most violent neighborhoods. Like other parts of the city, it has experienced a steep decline in crime in recent years. It’s still one of the poorest parts of Brooklyn.
