Man, 25, fatally shot in back outside Bronx apartment building

A 25-year-old man was fatally shot in the back outside a Bronx apartment building, cops said Sunday.
The victim was shot on E. 233rd St. near White Plains Road in Wakefield at about 10:35 p.m. Saturday, cops said.
Medics rushed the man to Jacobi Medical Center, but he could not be saved. His name was not immediately released.
No arrests have been made.
It was one of four slayings across four boroughs during a bloody eight-hour stretch. They include the fatal stabbing of a man by his Staten Island housemate at 1:45 a.m. Sunday, the shooting of a man behind a Queens retail strip at about 3 a.m. Sunday and a double-shooting in upper Manhattan about 6 a.m. Sunday that left a man dead from a gunshot wound to the head and a woman hit in her shoulder.
The Bronx killing comes amid a drop in murders this year in the 47th Precinct, which has seen six homicides and 22 shootings through Nov. 17, compared with 10 slayings and 31 shootings in the same timeframe last year.
