    Police said a 15-year-old who was wanted in connection to a shooting that hit a man in the head while he was driving, turned himself in.

    Police said the teen turned himself into the 69th precinct after a school safety officer told him he was wanted.

    The 15-year-old was charged with second-degree murder, and criminal possession of a weapon, according to police.

    On Monday, a 66-year-old man was shot in the head while driving, lost control of the SUV and struck a female pedestiran and then hit a building.

    It happened on Farmer's Boulevard and 117th Road in the St. Albans section around 4:50 p.m. Monday.

    William Alcindor, 66, of Cambria Heights was pronounced dead at the hospital.

    The 23-year-old woman was taken to the hospital with a leg injury.

    Surveillance video shows a chaotic scene as shots rang out. A discrepancy between the groups took place and then they scattered across the block.

    Alcindor's family says he was a hardworking, loving father of three who moved into their mother's home to take care of her.

    The 66-year-old was heading to a delivery while at work when he was shot.

    The family of Alcindor gathered at the candle-lit crime scene , sharing memories of the man who loved his family, still struggling to understand what happened.

    "Never can I remember William being angry about anything at all, he always is so kind," his sister Jaqueline Nicolas said.
