His brother Sherwin Chinnadu told The Daily News, “It is alleged that a resident had complained that the car was rowdy and disturbing them. Bystanders heard two gunshots. My brother drove off.
“The car came to a halt in the centre of the road. We’re not certain how many times he was shot. We are waiting for post-mortem results,” he said.
