Happy Monday, people of Brooklyn! I hope you all had a restful holiday weekend, and I am your host Patrick Murray to bring you back in the loop with the latest updates.

First, today's weather:

Partly sunny with a high of 44 and a low of 32.

Here are the top stories today in Brooklyn:

1. An 18-year-old Brooklyn man is clinging to life after being shot in the head at M&M Grocery Store in Flatbush. The teenager was taken to the hospital where he was listed in critical condition with life-threatening injuries. There have not yet been any arrests made. (amNY)
2. A Bath Beach collision on Sunday ended with injuries. At this time, the collision on Bay 8th Street remains under investigation. (Local Accident Reports)
3. Incoming Brooklyn councilman Ari Kagan is making a push to save the Coney Island boardwalk. Mayor Bill de Blasio's plan to renovate the boardwalk would include plastic planks and concrete, while Kagan hopes to prevent the old-fashioned existing boardwalk from being replaced. The city has yet to decide which part of the walkway to target for phase one of the $114.5 million dollar project. (New York Post)
