Doraymus Robinson, a young man aged 22 who was shot in the head in a “deli” business in Staten Island (NYC) during a dispute, died after agonizing for five days in the hospital.

Robinson was a customer at the “Elegant Deli” business on Victory Blvd. near Bay St. in the Tompkinsville neighborhood, when his girlfriend got into an argument with a man who was apparently selling drugs at the store, just before 6 pm on 21 June, police sources and witnesses said.

“If you keep doing it, something bad is going to happen to you,” the young woman warned the drug dealer, she told the Daily News the manager of the establishment. When Robinson and his girlfriend left the store, the alleged drug trafficker made a call from the store’s phone.

Shortly thereafter a car stopped and at least two men got out, leading to a confrontation with Robinson. During the confrontation the dealer came out of the store, pulled out a gun and shot Robinson in the head. Then the three suspects ran away.

Robinson was rushed to Richmond University Medical Center, where he agonized for five days before dying on Sunday, he said. the NYPD yesterday. He lived about 3 miles from where he was shot.

Two days after the shooting, police arrested Naquan Brooks, of 18 years, charging him with attempted murder, assault, weapons possession, and criminal use of a firearm. The suspect lives in Coney Island (Brooklyn) according to NYPD.

The ambush occurred just a few steps from the place where Eric Garner died, strangled in 2014 by the now fired NYPD officer, Daniel Pantaleo.

After the rise of violence armed in 2020 and 2020 particularly among young members and/or gang victims, the 2022 continues with the same trend, putting a great challenge to the new mayor Eric Adams, who since taking office in January he has encountered obstacles within his own Democratic party and leaders of “Black Lives Matter” (BLM) to face the crisis.
