Gov. Cuomo's staff was among the three people who were shot in an outburst of
violence ahead of the West Indian Day Parade early Monday that also resulted in
the stabbing death of a fourth person.
Carey Gabay, 43, was shot in
the head head on Bedford Avenue and Sullivan Place at about 3:40 a.m., Cuomo
said Monday morning.

Note: Earlier
today, From The G-Man received the following statement from the office
of Governor Andrew Cuomo.
“Early this morning, Carey
Gabay – a member of our administration – was shot in Brooklyn. Carey is now in
critical condition at Kings County Hospital. Carey is First Deputy General
Counsel at Empire State Development and was formerly an Assistant Counsel to
the Governor.
“Carey is an outstanding public servant who joined our administration in 2011. He is a Harvard-educated lawyer who works for the State because he wants to give back to others and make a difference. He is just 43 years old and is a kind-hearted man. Carey is a friend to all who have the pleasure of meeting him. I ask that New Yorkers join us by keeping him, his wife Trenelle and his family in their prayers at this time.
“This tragic shooting – this
one by another seemingly random bullet – is the latest heartbreaking reminder
that the crime of gun violence must stop. Enough young, innocent people have
died, and it must stop now.”
