BRONX - Cops are looking for the gunman who killed one man and wounded another outside a Bronx school in Highbridge on Saturday night. The murder capped off a bloody weekend in the Bronx where another man was killed and two others wounded in three additional shootings less than 24 hours earlier. 


At around 9:30 pm on Saturday, a gunman opened fire on the corner of Sheridan Avenue and McClellan Street, next to PS 457, the Sheridan Academy for Young Leaders. Cops said multiple shots were fired and fatally struck one victim and wounded another.

Police have identified the victim as 31-year-old Sakou Saho of Mott Haven. The victim was repeatedly struck with bullets throughout his torso. Although Saho was rushed to Lincoln Hospital he was pronounced deceased a short time later. 


A 49-year-old man at the scene was also shot in the stomach. He was treated at Lincoln Hospital where he is listed in stable condition. 


At this time there is no description of the gunman or a possible motive. 



About 24 hours earlier another fatal shooting occurred a short distance from Saturday’s killing. 


At around 9:30 pm on Sept 13, two men were shot standing inside a bodega on Anthony Avenue. A 24-year-old man was fatally hit with a bullet when a man dressed in black and posing as a dog walker walked up to the bodega and opened fire. 


A 42-year-old man suffered a graze wound to the head when the bullet flew threw the grocery store. 


Two hours later another shooting occurred in Morris Park. At around 11:30 pm on September 13, a 44-year-old was shot twice in the chest on Williamsbridge Road.
