Bronx man shot to death block away from fatal road rage stabbing day earlier


A 30-year-old Bronx man was fatally shot during a clash a block away from where a man was stabbed to death following a road-rage crash a day earlier, cops said Thursday.

Jonathan Cameron was shot multiple times all over his body on Loring Place near West Burnside Ave. in Morris Heights just before 10 p.m. Wednesday, cops said. A 19-year-old man with him was beaten.

Both victims were taken to St. Barnabas Hospital, where Cameron died. The younger victim is expected to recover.

Cameron was about three blocks from home when he was shot. No arrests have been made.

The shooting occurred about a block from W. Tremont Ave. and Phelan Place, where at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday Ronald Gomez Mesa, 29, was stabbed to death after a teen and a woman got into a minor fender bender, cops said.

The woman called her boyfriend, who was getting in the face of the teenage driver when Gomez Mesa and other onlookers “begin to take sides,” NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said Wednesday.

“(The stabber) begins to argue with the driver, the crowd turns on him and begins to throw items, striking him in the head,” Kenny said. “He, then, in turn turns around and starts stabbing someone in the crowd.”

The stabber ran off and is being sought by police.

There is currently no evidence the two homicides are connected, police said.
