A man is facing a murder charge in connection with a fatal shooting inside a deli in Williamsbridge.
Marlon Smith, 22, of Co-op City, was arrested Monday, over a year after he allegedly killed 20-year-old Sorai King inside the deli located at 3724 Bronxwood Ave.
Authorities say King was shot in the neck and chest just after 1:30 p.m. on April 17, 2025.
Surveillance video obtained by News 12 shows paramedics wheeling King out of the deli on a stretcher. He died at NYC Health and Hospitals/Jacobi.
The footage also shows the gunman running from the store after the shooting. He is seen turning back and reentering the deli before taking off a second time.
“We want justice for my nephew. He was only 20 years old. He did not deserve this," said King's aunt.
The motive for the shooting is still under investigation.
