Police were called to a home in the 11000 block of Roby Avenue for a shooting at around 6:10 p.m. on May 24. When they arrived they found Zayas shot inside of the home.

He was pronounced dead on the scene.

Police said Hussein met Zayas through a third person and became fixated on Zayas' relationship with that third person.

Detectives then learned Hussein had been seen outside Zayas' home by witnesses on more than one occasion and had threatened to kill Zayas last summer.

Hussein is charged with first and second-degree murder. He is currently in custody on a no-bond status.
