"They can't go around killing people like that," said Martha Surgener, 68, who lives in the Brownsville Houses. "It's a depressing day. It's crazy."


Mr. Aminov, 55, delivered meals for the Jewish Association for Services to the Aged.
Whether the shooting was part of a robbery was not immediately known. The victim, Imonil Aminov, 55, worked as a deliveryman for the Jewish Association for Services for the Aged, which brings food to Brownsville and East New York through the city’s Department for the Aging, said Aileen Gitelson, chief executive officer of the Jewish Association.
