BRONX - A Bronx man was found dead outside a liquor store after cops say he was shot around the corner during a mugging.


At around 10 pm on December 15, cops found two wounded men in front of a liquor store at 189 Burnside Avenue in Fordham.






Johnny Gaston, 32, suffered a gunshot wound to the head and a 27-year-old man suffered a gunshot wound to the groin. 


EMS rushed both men to nearby St. Barnabas Hospital where Gaston was pronounced dead. The other man is in stable condition. 


During the course of the investigation police determined that the victims had not been shot outside the liquor but instead around the corner.


According to investigators Gaston and the other man were in front of 1920 Osbourne Place when five men tried to rob them. 


Gaston and the other victim 

tried to flee by running around the corner but the muggers opened fire striking both men.
