Police say the man died after someone dropped him off at a city hospital with suspicious life-threatening injuries. He died a short time later, and now homicide investigators are probing the case.4 d4 S2 G2 O% B$ S+ d

Cops believe the shooting took place somewhere near 172 Street and 94 Avenue some time between 5 and 6 a.m. yesterday, but figuring out exactly where it happened has been difficult.

As well, they want whoever dropped him off at the hospital to come forward. They'd also like to hear from any residents in the area who might have noticed suspicious activity, Wuite noted. t, g4 x1 | G" W3 A( r `

In the meantime, Wear said news of the case was disturbing, especially since many seniors live in the area.
