A 43-year-old barber was shot in his shop while giving a haircut to an 8-year-old boy, police said. Jose Velez is remembered by 19-year-old Hassune Mawlood, who also owns his own barbershop, as he reflects on being mentored by Velez and how he acted “as a big brother.”

/bklyn 👑
pure evil, I hope they catch the killer
Just awful RIP this country is filled with evil disgusting men
America live by the gun die by the gun,… I don't care anymore.
F Demokkkrats
I wish the USA would take a note from australia and canada and say no more guns
video will probably be on twitter in a few days
RIP
Prayers
Heh. Ironically the first people youd look into is the local barber competition (I mean look at how this dude is smiling). Unless hes dealing with some shady characters or recently screwed up someones hair. And whos gonna finish that kids haircut? if he goes to the next nearest barbershop it'll probably be the murderer ironically lol.
🙏🏾❤
So so sad! When is this madness going to stop!!!😢
Taking out the competition. Those m 30s have changed the community.
The pc of trash that did this will pay with eternal damnation and suffering..
Carry. Start protecting yourself. You actually have that right REGARDLESS of what your government thinks
When a Country takes God out of schools, closes their Bibles, removes the 10 Commandments and stops praying, sin takes over.
What a unspeakable tragedy. America has degenerated into a horrrible place. "Isolated incident?" I don't think so. EVERY day another tragedy. America has become uninhabitable. I've moved my family away. We'll never move back. So sorry, but it's a matter of survival. UNHCR says "refugees vote with their feet." True. Good-bye.
I remember Jose he was my barber too . He used to have a Barber shop in South Tacoma Way & 96 Ave . In Tacoma , He sold the place around 2015 .
Oh no no no ! What is happening to our country ?????
Never understand how police always say the threat is low???, dude just walked In and killed a man in front of a kid and you don't think he's a danger to anyone with him carrying a loaded weapan?
Sounds like they just hated him.
My condolences for the loss of life.
BUT
Y'all Voted For This.
Y'all even Rioted For This.
Remember???
*Defund The Police
*No Cash Bail
*Soft On Crime
*Open Borders
*Sanctuary City/State
And Y'all just Voted for this AGAIN 😂
I Guess Y'all Got What You Wanted…Right!?!
Bet they was black
Adios amigo
Good thing you all voted democrat this past month so you guys will stop having these senseless killing…. Oh wait nvm
Over woman or money I'd be looking @ the girlfriend
This is absurd. 😞
Another senseless random shooting, just a day apart from another senseless random shooting.
Stop voting for gun lovers. Or more of the same.
This grieves my heart.
I wonder why somebody would want this good man dead?
Something smells fishy to me
What on earth are those two Police Officers taking out of the dead man’s shop.
Sounds like he made some bad business with someone or gang activity
