Man Dies After Being Shot in the Head Outside NYC Deli: Officials

A young Queens man was shot to death Tuesday night outside of a deli in the Bronx, police say.

Just before 11 p.m., cops rushed to the area near Bronx Deli Grocery near East 180th Street and Daly Avenue in West Farms, where they found a 21-year-old man suffering from a gunshot wound to the head, according to the NYPD. 

Paramedics rushed the victim, identified as Bryce Hamilton, to an area hospital in critical condition, but doctors were unable to save his life. Officials say they received witness reports of someone fleeing the scene after the gunfire.

Authorities were trying to get video footage from the deli, after a witness reported that Hamilton was arguing with someone inside.

No arrests have been made, but police say they are investigating.
