Fatal Gun Battle Erupts Outside Baby Shower for Wife of Actor Jamie Hector, Linton Williams, 17, Shot and Killed, Two Others Injured

Drama unfolded at a baby shower in Brooklyn this weekend. The baby shower was held for the wife of Jamie Hector, a star of the HBO crime series "The Wire" Sunday, killing one teen, Linton Williams, 17, and wounding two men, Andrew Filson and Walter Parker. Gunmen reportedly unloaded nearly 50 bullets outside the party and then tried to finish off one of the wounded men, Andrew Filson, outside Downstate Medical Center. He was then put into an ambulance and taken to Kings County Hospital where he is in critical condition yesterday. Parker was shot in the leg and is reportedly in stable condition at Brookdale University Hospital.
Police and paramedics raced to E. 93rd St. in East Flatbush about 1:20 a.m. Cops found evidence of a running gun battle with at least 46 shell casings dotting about half the block beginning at Avenue B. Two guns were recovered, but no suspects were arrested after the violence that spilled out from the party. Source: NY Daily News
Hector is a Brooklyn native and also starred in the television shows "Heroes," "Jericho" and "The Game." He was said to have been at the shower for some time, but it is unclear whether or not he was present when the bullets started flying. This is a shame and I hope the gunmen will be caught.
