NEW YORK CITY — Homicide detectives are looking for two men and a woman in connection to the murder of a Queens man shot to death in The Bronx Friday night, police said.

Police found Lavon Latimer, 27, of Far Rockaway about 11:26 p.m. in front of a Mount Hope apartment complex at 1840 Grand Concourse with multiple gunshot wounds to the torso.

Investigators now believe that he was shot in front of 220 Hope Place and staggered, wounded to the Grand Concourse where he fell.

Paramedics took Latimer to St. Barnabus Hospital here he was pronounced dead, police said.

The investigation was still ongoing. There had not been any arrests Sunday morning, a police spokeswoman said.
