The New York Police Department says they’ve arrested a 52-year old man and a 53-year-old man, both from Queens. They were arrested and charged Thursday.
Police say the men are charged with killing 28-year-old Noel Samuels, of Queens, who was shot in the head on May 27 on a street in South Jamaica and later died at a hospital.
