A bodega worker was shot and killed during a robbery on the Upper East Side late Friday night. As KristieKNews reports, police believe that same suspect may have also robbed another store.
-- Police are searching for a suspect accused of shooting and killing a beloved bodega worker on the Upper East Side late Friday night.Heartbroken neighbors and customers, unwilling to believe the longtime deli employee lost his life, lingered outside the bodega Saturday morning.
"It's so close to home. I live two block away. I get my breakfast sandwich from that place every morning. Just to be that close to something and know it could happen to you," one man said. Customers also said he worked the overnight shift alone and many were concerned for his safety before this happened.
"We are behind the counter. We get robbed. We could get taken to the basement of our businesses or wherever and shot and killed the same way he was. We're here to offer every bodega owner here support," said Fernando Mateo, spokesperson for United Bodega Workers for America.
