BEDFORD-STUYVESANT — A Brooklyn man died of gunshot wounds after driving himself to the front of Interfaith Hospital early Sunday morning, the NYPD said.

Fitzgerald McBride, 46, was found inside his Chevrolet Silverado with multiple bullet wounds to his arm and torso around 5:20 a.m., officials said.

Police believe McBride was shot in the SUV at another location and drove himself to the hospital. 

"We do have video of him driving his car in that direction," Inspector Michael Baldassano said during a press conference at One Police Plaza Monday. "He must have been shot at another location, [and was] attempting to get to the hospital, [but he] never made it into the parking lot."

There were two bullet holes in the vehicle, Baldassano added. 

McBride, of Brownsville, was parked at the intersection of Atlantic and Albany avenues, according to police.

Paramedics transported the victim to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

The investigation is ongoing, police said.

Anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS (8477).
