A New York City killer, who was reportedly disguised as a Hasidic Jew, pretended he was having engine trouble, hiding behind the raised hood of his car in order to jump out and shoot another man in the back of the head as the victim was getting into his own car across the street, the New York Post reported.
Police said that the victim, Jermaine Dixon, 47, was found deceased on Wednesday at 8am in Queens.
Video footage of the brazen attack showed the killer disguised in what appears to be traditional Hasidic dress pretending that his car had broken down.
He had opened the hood, trunk and the door of his car, and was making it appear that he was looking under the hood when Dixon walked up to his own car.
When Dixon turned his back to open his own car’s door, the unidentified man ran across the street to where Dixon was standing and shot him in the back of the head, according to the video.
The killer then ran back to his car, quickly closed the hood and sped away.
Police and emergency services discovered Dixon’s body slumped over inside his car and pronounced him dead at the scene.
So far there is no motive and no arrests have been made. The investigation is ongoing.
