A man was shot dead in Brooklyn on Sunday afternoon as he cycled through a quiet residential neighborhood.
The unnamed man, 31, was found unconscious and unresponsive at the corner of Union Street and Utica Avenue in Crown Heights just after noon beside his bike and bloody baseball cap.
Witnesses describe seeing a gunman approach and fire a single bullet into his head before jumping into a gray Chevy Suburban and speeding off.

Less than 2 hours later and just 2 miles away, a 19-year-old man was shot once in each leg.
The wounded man was taken to Brookdale Hospital in stable condition but refused to cooperate with investigators.
The shooting is believed to be part of an ongoing beef between two rival gangs in the neighborhood.
