Another homeless man was found gunned down in Lower Manhattan on Sunday – and police are investigating whether he is the latest victim of an apparent serial shooter targeting vagrants in the area, sources said.
The latest fatal victim was found wrapped in blankets outside of a Chipotle at the corner of Greenwich and Murray streets in Tribeca at about 6:30 p.m., police sources said.
The slaying follows two similar shootings, one of them fatal, against homeless people in Soho early Saturday morning.
In those first two, police have said the same deranged suspect first shot and wounded a 38-year-old vagrant as he slept on King Street in Soho.
About an hour later, the sicko shot dead a homeless victim who was covered in a sleeping bag about 15 blocks away outside of 148 Lafayette St.
The second victim in the Saturday spree was struck in the head and neck.
City leaders have urged the community to come together and help find the crazed killer.
“Homelessness turning into a homicide. We need to find this person and we need New Yorkers to help us,” Mayor Eric Adams said at a Saturday night press conference.
