New York City police have apprehended a 25-year-old man suspected of carrying out a shooting spree on a scooter in Brooklyn and Queens on Sunday.

The deceased victim was identified as 87-year-old Hamod Ali Saeidi, who was known for his daily walks to check in on family and friends.

The suspect also fired at a group of people but missed. The police did not release the suspect"s identity but disclosed that he had a prior arrest on his record. Authorities are still investigating the motive behind the shooting spree.
