Police were investigating the deaths of two men who were found murdered in Jamaica early Friday morning.

Officers responded to 150-36 Shore Ave. around 1:40 a.m. after they got a call of shots fired, police said. When they arrived, the officers discovered two unidentified black men with several gunshot wounds to their heads, according to police.

They were both pronounced dead at the scene by EMS, investigators said.

No suspects have been named or arrested and the investigation was ongoing. A neighbor living next door to the multi-family dwelling where the men were found said he had not heard any gunshots or commotion during the early morning hours.

“I don’t know what happened,” said Brown Chilala, 16.

Anyone with information is urged to call Crimestoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477). All calls will be kept confidential.
