Suspect arrested for shooting man to death, dumping him behind Bronx hospital

A suspect was arrested for shooting a 21 -year -old man to death – then throwing him behind a Bronx hospital, police announced on Thursday.

Deean Edwards, 22, faced accusations of murder and possession of firearms for the death of September 2 of Jontay Davis. Edwards was caught on September 11, NYPD announced on Thursday.

Davis was found around 2 am in the head behind St. Barnabas hospital. The first speakers precipitated him in the hospital but he could not be saved.

Doctors precipitated him inside, but he could not be saved. He lived with his family less than a mile from the hospital.

Deean was arrested nine days later and was detained without deposit on Rikers Island. He lives in Flatbush, Brooklyn, according to the cops.

The victim’s grip mother said that Davis had just finished secondary studies and wanted to be a mechanic.

“He was a beautiful child,” she said.

The older sister of Davis created a gofundme to cover funeral costs.

Her brother, she wrote, was “left for dead at the back of St. Barnabas hospital, thrown away as if there was nothing.”

“The pain and the shock of losing it in such a heartbreaking and cruel way is something that our family will wear forever,” she added.

“Jontay was only 21 years old, full of life, dreams and love for the people around him. He was a son, a brother, an uncle and a friend who deserved so much more time here with us. Jontay also lived with autism, which gave it a unique and beautiful way to see the world. He touched everyone whom he met with his kindness, his big heart and his particular mind. ”
