Brooklyn musician kills bandmates then turns gun on himself [View all]

Source: WPIX

WILLIAMSBURG, Brooklyn (PIX11) — An overnight shooting rampage in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn left three men and the shooter dead .

Investigators say the shooter and the victim were all in an Iranian band called the Yellow Dogs. Cops say it all started just after midnight when a gunman launched the bloody attack.

The New York Post is reporting the shooter was an Iranian musician who was upset over being thrown out of the band and used a military assault style rifle to get his revenge.

The shooting went down at 318 Maujer St., the address on the group’s Facebook page. That’s where the shooter — armed with semi automatic rifle with a 20-round magazine — opened fire on someone outside the building before going inside where he fatally shot three people.
