He had a single gun shot wound to the chest, and was pronounced dead at the scene. Police said an autopsy would be scheduled.

There's no word on suspects.

"It's not normal in this neighbourhood to happen, this type of violence,” one resident said. “Everyone knows each other. We're like a community here.”
