NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The hunt is on for a suspect who police say opened fire outside a Brooklyn bodega, killing a 16-year-old boy. It happened Sunday afternoon in East New York. Witnesses say 16-year-old Justin Richey was involved in some kind of dispute. He then went into the bodega and when he walked out, a man pulled out a gun and shot him, CBS2’s Jenna DeAngelis reported. The teen than ran across the street where he collapsed near Blake Avenue and Pine Street. When officers arrived, police said they found Richey with multiple gunshot wounds to the torso. “He’s trying to run and he collapsed,” Asm Aladdin said. “My kids every day come out and want to play but now, from yesterday, they don’t want to come outside the house. We are very scared.” The teen was taken to Brookdale Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Police are now investigating the possibility that the shooting was gang-related, DeAngelis reported. A community advocate was at the scene Monday, calling for change. “It’s just a tragedy and it has to stop. We have to find a way to figure out some solution to get these guns out of these kid’s hands,” Michael Thomas said. The teen, who was known by his friends as Richey, was described as a funny guy. They say he worked odd jobs, anything from yard work to cleaning, just to help his mom and siblings. “The reason he was working so hard was to take care of his family,” said friend Decory Peele. “He would clean up, walk dogs — he just did anything anybody asked him.” The NYPD added that the alleged shooter was last seen in a red t-shirt and grey sweatpants. Their investigation is ongoing.

Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 16, 2018 Trump referring to Special Council Robert Mueller indicting 12 Russian military officers last week for allegedly interfering with the 2016 presidential election. Putin has denied being involved. “I find it hard to believe, but that’s what one of the purposes of this meeting is, so the president can see eye-to-eye with President Putin and ask him about it,” said National Security Adviser John Bolton. Trump told CBS Evening News anchor Jeff Glor that he has low expectations for the summit. “I go into a meeting like that never with high expectations, but maybe some really good stuff can happen,” he said. “I wanna do great for our country and I’m sure he wants to do well for his.” The president is meeting first alone with Putin and translators. After, there will be an expanded meeting with the president will be joined by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Bolton and Chief of Staff John Kelly. The Senate’s number two Republican, Sen. John Cornyn, is warning the president to be wary of Putin. “Putin is an autocrat. He’s a thug. He does not respect the rule of law,” he said. “Obviously, he doesn’t respect our democracy.” Trump and Putin have met briefly at other events, but this will be the first time the two will have extended talks.

GRIFFITH PARK (CBSLA) — The LAPD bomb squad descended on the Greek Theatre in Griffith Park on Sunday. As CBSLA’s Cristy Fajardo reports, the LAPD said the bomb threat turned out to be a false alarm. Sky9 was over the Greek Theatre as bomb-sniffing dogs went through the aisles. The crowd had come to see YouTube star Yousef Erakat whose YouTube channel FouseyTube has more than a million subscribers. Police say about 6:15 p.m. they got a call from a person claiming to have planted an explosive device at the theater. The LAPD decided to clear out the venue just in case and brought in the bomb squad. The event was free and tickets had sold out but at that hour police say only about 1,500 people were at the Greek and Erakat had yet to take the stage. After it was clear the event was not going on he got on top of his car down the road and gave an impromptu performance. Some of his fans had driven hours to see him on short notice. The concert was only announced days ago and some fans are wondering if the threat was the handiwork of a jealous social media rival. “Everybody was enjoying themselves,” said a fan. “It was just getting better and then out of nowhere they make an announcement. They tell everybody ‘oh we need to evacuate. There’s a light problem.’ ” “It happens to a lot of people. A lot of YouTubers. There’s not much you can really do about it,” said another fan. On Saturday the Griffith Observatory also had a false alarm . Police were called out there to a call of a suspicious package. The Observatory was also evacuated and they also found nothing. Police say they don’t know if the two incidents are connected. They are now investigating.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – A subway rider says he confronted a man for allegedly hitting a child on the E train, but police say the man then pulled out a knife. Cellphone video shows the suspect going on an expletive-laced tirade, waving the weapon and spitting at the straphanger before getting off the train. The 45-year-old victim, who did not want to reveal his identity, told CBS2’s Lisa Rozner it all started on the E train at Canal Street after the suspect hit his young son in a stroller. “He was crying, and that’s why caught everybody’s attention – the noise when he hit him on the arm,” the man said. “I have two kids. I wouldn’t do anything like that. That’s why I couldn’t hold myself when I say, ‘Listen, what you’re doing is not right.’” Victim: “Why you hitting your son?” Suspect: “Because he’s my son and I can do that.” At one point, the even yelled at the suspect to stop. Suspect: “I’m not stopping nothing until you do something.” This happened around 3:30 p.m. on Sunday, June 24. The victim was with his wife and 4-year-old daughter, who asked her dad if everything was OK. Suspect: “Yeah, it’s fine, your daddy will get killed on this train.” At the West 4 th Street stop, the suspect held the subway doors open and flashed the knife. “That’s obviously pretty scary,” another rider told Rozner. “You never know, and it just says you shouldn’t confront people on the subway, because it could be dangerous,” a woman added. Police said the suspect is now wanted for menacing. The victim said he takes the E train every day and he’s worried the suspect will retaliate. “If he pull a knife and threaten your life in front of everybody and holding his child at the same time, he’s a guy (that) doesn’t have anything to lose,” he said. He said he was just trying to do the right thing, but now will never intervene again.
