Police responded to a 911 call of a male shot inside the building and found Roache, who lived on the second floor, laying in the staircase landing between the first and second floors, “unconscious and unresponsive,” cops said.

EMS transported Roache to Kings County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

There are no arrests and the investigation is ongoing, police said.
