The Bronx shooting: Man arrested after allegedly shooting two people

Kenneth Morgan, 68, was arrested following a shooting in a Bronx apartment on Saturday night. Authorities report that Morgan allegedly shot his 70-year-old former partner and a 60-year-old man who was accompanying her.

The incident occurred at a building on Third Avenue near 173rd Street. The woman sustained a gunshot wound to the abdomen, while the man suffered multiple hits to the chest. Both victims were transported to St. Barnabas Hospital and were reported to be in stable condition.

Following the shooting, Morgan reportedly barricaded himself inside the ninth-floor apartment, leading to a standoff involving the NYPD and the Emergency Service Unit. Officers eventually entered the residence, located the victims, and took Morgan into custody. He faces charges including attempted murder, assault, and criminal possession of a weapon.
