Police say a 29-year-old man is fighting for his life after being shot in the head Wednesday near a family shelter in Midwood.

The shooting happened around 10:30 p.m. outside 928 Coney Island Ave. Investigators say the victim was standing on the corner when he was hit in the head and body by gunfire. He was rushed to Maimonides Medical Center, where he remains in critical condition.

The Department of Homeless Services confirmed he works for the nonprofit that owns the family shelter. As of Thursday afternoon, there is no indication that the incident is connected to the facility or his job there.

Police recovered numerous shell casings at the scene. A law enforcement source tells News 12 they are searching for multiple individuals who took off in a gray car after the shooting.

So far, no arrests have been made.
