The man was taken to the Kings County Hospital Center, where he was listed in stable condition. 

The investigation led cops into the building, where they discovered a 38-year-old man, shot multiple times in the torso, cops said. He was pronounced dead on scene. 

Cops say the gunman may have at some point barricaded himself inside the apartment with the fatal victim, but as of early Thursday, he was on the loose.
