A 16-year-old boy was chased down a Brooklyn street and fatally shot on Wednesday night, police and sources said.
The victim, Jaden Turnage, was shot in the chest on Monroe Street near Franklin Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant at about 6:15 p.m., according to the NYPD.
Turnage was taken to Brooklyn Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, according to cops.
