A Honduran national has been charged with relentlessly shooting two men on a Brooklyn sidewalk on Easter Sunday — leaving one young victim dead and the other critically injured, according to authorities.
Michael Mendoza Cardona, 24, was charged on Monday with murder, attempted murder, and two counts of criminal possession of a weapon in connection with the deadly shooting that unfolded Sunday evening outside a building on Fulton Street in Cypress Hills, according to sources and the NYPD.
Harrowing surveillance footage allegedly captured Mendoza Cardona shooting Jose Urena Moran, 30, and a 50-year-old man underneath the elevated J-train subway platform between Cleveland and Elton streets.
The clip obtained by The Post captured the two men standing on the sidewalk near a group of about three men.
After one of the men in the pair appeared to say something to the crew, the alleged killer whipped out a gun and calmly fired several shots at him and the man he was standing near.
The brazen gunman continued to pump bullets into the victims even as they lay motionless on the sidewalk, the disturbing footage showed.
Both unidentified men were taken to Brookdale University Medical Center in critical condition. Moran, of Cypress Hills, was later pronounced dead, police said.
It’s unclear if Mendoza Cardona was in the country illegally. The Post has reached out to the Department of Homeland Security for clarity.
An investigation remains ongoing.
