Man Shot in the Face Steps From Coney Island Boardwalk

A man was shot to death in Coney Island just days before the annual hot dog eating contest.

Police responded to the area of West 28th Street and Surf Avenue, just steps from the Coney Island Boardwalk, just before 9:30am on Wednesday for a reported person shot, officials said. Officers found a 24-year-old man, identified as Truron Roachmartin, of Brooklyn, with bullet wounds to the face and chest, according to police. The NYPD is searching for an unidentified individual who fled the area heading toward Mermaid Avenue. More on this from Pix 11.
