BROOKLYN — A 21-year-old man was killed in what police believe was a gang-related shooting Tuesday afternoon outside of a Coney Island deli, the NYPD said.

Ronnell Bradley was gunned down outside of the bodega on Mermaid Avenue near West 24th Street at 4:06 p.m., police said.

Bradley, who police found with multiple gunshot wounds to his torso and legs, was shot just a block away from where he lived, according to the NYPD.

Emergency responders rushed Bradley to Coney Island Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

Bradley has 11 prior arrests for assault, disorderly conduct, criminal menace, drug possession in prison, robbery, and false impersonation, a police spokeswoman said.

There were no arrests made as of early Wednesday.

The shooting occurred on the same corner where a 10-year-old boy was caught in the crossfire and shot in the knee in June.
