Also I can't figure out what the suspect's ethnicity is.

Where the shooting happened and where he lived were 10-15 minutes apart thus not the same neighborhood.

FWIW

Oscar Morel, 35, is charged with first and second-degree murder and two counts of criminal possession of a weapon in the Saturday afternoon executions of Imam Maulana Alauddin Akonjee and Thara Uddin near the Al-Fuquan Jame Masjid mosque in the Ozone Park neighborhood of Queens.

ENY and Ozone Park border each other. Not far at all. A lot of the growing South Asian population that was historically in Ozone Park and Richmond Hill has been creeping into ENY as of late, especially into the City Line section.

I live 10 blocks from the scene of the crime. My neighbor is Bengali and he and his son went to the Iman's funeral. The Bengali people are very nice and they do not bother anybody. More and more are crossing over from City Line into Ozone Park. I'd rather live next to the Bengali people then the ghetto savages that are fleeing gentrification in Brooklyn and who are now destroying parts of OP and Woodhaven. Anyway, the shooter looks Mentally Ill.
