SOUTH JAMAICA — The NYPD Tuesday released a sketch of a suspect wanted in the murder of an off-duty customs and border agent outside his parents’ southeast Queens home in 2010.

There is a $22,000 reward for information leading to the person who killed Maurice Gordon, 33, in the early morning hours of June 21, 2010.

Police said Gordon, a U.S. Customs and Border agent at JFK Airport, was with a cousin at a nightclub in Elmont, L.I. when he was followed back to his parents’ home in South Jamaica.

Police said three men approached in a black SUV and someone shot Gordon once in the chest. He died at Jamaica Hospital.

Police describe one of the suspects as a black male between the ages of 28 and 32 who stands around 5 feet, 10 inches tall with a thin build and black hair in waves.

Those with information should contact NYPD’s Crimestoppers by calling 1-800-577-TIPS (8477), visiting its website or texting 274637 (CRIMES) and entering TIP577.
