* The ex-boyfriend of a pregnant woman found shot to death in her Flatlands apartment Saturday was under arrest last night on unrelated charges, police sources said.
Lamethia McCollum, 28, was shot in the head in the bedroom of the apartment that she shared with her 9-year-old daughter. Doctors couldn’t save her unborn child.
Police questioned McCollum’s ex-boyfriend, Ed Brown, but his alibi checked out. But Brown was kept in custody because he had an outstanding warrant for disorderly conduct. (s, lcf)
* A 44-year-old man has been charged with homicide and criminal possession of a weapon in a fatal stabbing Saturday.
Freddy Irry, 49, was walking with his girlfriend on Lafayette Avenue in Prospect Heights when they encountered Donnell Franklin, 44, who knew the woman, cops said. Words were exchanged, and Franklin allegedly stabbed Irry in the stomach.
Irry was taken to Bellevue Hospital, where he died.
* Two cars were vandalized in Crown Heights by an unknown person who wrote anti-Semitic slurs on them.
At about 7:20 a.m. yesterday, a woman discovered the slurs scrawled on the hood of her car and found three of its tires slashed.
Hours later, a man discovered that two of his car’s tires had been slashed and the hood of his car had been defaced with anti-Semitic markings. Police believe the two incidents are related.
* A 60-year-old man was seriously injured at 9:25 a.m. yesterday when he was hit by a 1993 Nissan while crossing Kings Highway at the intersection with Flatbush Avenue.
The victim, whose name was withheld, was taken to Kings County Hospital, where he was listed in critical condition. The driver stopped, and no arrests were made.
* A good Samaritan was fatally shot in broad daylight along with the man he was trying to protect in a Brooklyn neighborhood yesterday, according to cops and area residents.
The tragedy unfolded at 1:30 p.m. on Miller Avenue in East New York, when 29-year-old Shawn Smalls got into an argument with one or more people.
An older man from the neighborhood intervened on Smalls’ behalf, with deadly consequences, friends and relatives said.
“I just got a call that my cousin [Smalls] was in a fight. I came here, and he was shot. I heard they were fighting, and then somebody killed him. The guy that rents him a room tried to break it up, and they shot him, too,” said Rashawn Cook, 24.
Police said Smalls was shot multiple times and pronounced dead at the scene. The other man was pronounced dead at Brookdale Hospital.
No arrests were made.
Another cousin of Smalls, who refused to give her name, said, “The same guys that shot my cousin shot that old man.
“I don’t know them, but those guys who shot him hang right next door,” she said, referring to an apartment known for drug dealing.
A neighbor who refused to give her name, said “I heard gunshots, about six of them, then I ran downstairs. Bugsy [Smalls] looked like he was gone, and the old man was still alive.” (m)
