Reed was unconscious and unresponsive and taken to Jamaica Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

According to the NY Daily News, the father of the three was shot as he was leaving a Christmas party with his pregnant girlfriend.

A police source told the Daily News that two men were seen fleeing the scene and the shooting is suspected to be a “targeted hit” because it appeared the shooters where waiting for Reed to walk by.

No arrests have been made at this time and the investigation is ongoing, police said.
