A 60-year-old man was shot dead inside his Manhattan apartment Thursday morning in what authorities described as a targeted attack.
The victim, Tyrone Swinton, was blasted twice in the chest around 11:11 a.m. in his Harlem home on West 116 Street and Malcolm X Boulevard, according to cops.
Authorities said responding police officers discovered Swinton lying face down in a pool of blood on the floor.
