The neighbor added: “He don’t have gang friends or anything like that. He’s usually just alone on his way to work. He just goes to college and work and you know you see him taking an Uber to go to class. I don’t understand why anyone would shoot him.” In response to the shooting, the president of the United Federation of Teachers (UFT), Michael Mulgrew, issued a statement Wednesday evening. Mulgrew said that this was yet another "senseless shooting." He added that their students, staff, and community "deserve to be safe" instead of being traumatized by such violence. He noted: "As a city, we have to do better." Although the shooting occurred in a gang territory, the victim had no prior criminal records or affiliations with any gangs. It was also reported that the gunman described by the NYPD resembled the individual in the security camera footage. They claimed the suspect was dressed in a red sweatshirt over a red do-rag and a black parka. Department of Education Chancellor, David Banks, tweeted about the incident.Chancellor David C.
