🌱 Two Wanted In Bed-Stuy Man's Death + June Primaries Approaching

Good morning, neighbors! I am your host, Patrick Murray here with four fresh headlines to kick off your weekend.

First, today's weather:

Afternoon showers with a high of 79 and a low of 68.

📢 I’m looking for business owners and marketers in Brooklyn who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Brooklyn Daily readers to local businesses they need to know about. If that’s you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top stories in Brooklyn today:

1. A pair of suspects are wanted for an attack that left a 61-year-old Brooklyn man dead. Victor Vega was walking near his home on Lexington Avenue when he was attacked by the two men. Vega was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was later pronounced dead, while the suspects remain on the loose. (PIX 11)
2. The June primary elections are approaching following a chaotic year of shifting district lines. The elections will be held on June 28. (Brooklyn Paper)
3. An NYPD school safety officer has been arrested and charged with breaking into the home of his ex-wife. Christopher Nicholson, 30, broke into the home and broke his ex's cell phone. The charges against Nicholson include burglary, grand larceny, trespassing and others. (PIX11 New York News)
4. Surveillance footage from at least four cameras captured a violent robbery of a 14-year-old boy. The teenager was held at gunpoint and hit repeatedly by a group of men at the Brooklyn Bridge Park. Police believe that at least some of the group knew the boy who was robbed. (NBC New York)
