A Bronx man has been arrested in shooting
death of a Spring Valley man who was trying to buy a motorcycle last week.
Police say they
responded to a 911 call of shots fired at East 144th
Street and Exterior Street last Wednesday afternoon.
When officers arrived, they found Jefferson Hernandez, 20,
with a gunshot wound to the head. Hernandez
was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced deceased.
A firearm was recovered on the scene.
Police later arrested
Manuel Reyes, 23, of the Bronx, and charged him
with numerous crimes, including murder.
Investigators say Hernandez
was one of three men who went to purchase two motorcycles in a transaction that
was arranged on Facebook.
