A crew member on the TV series Law & Order: Organized Crime has been shot dead at a filming location for the show in New York.
Johnny Pizarro was found at about 5.15am local time on Tuesday on a residential street in the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn before a day of filming was scheduled to begin.
He was suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to the head and neck, according to police.
The 31-year-old, from Queens, New York, was taken to hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Police were investigating and had not released information on suspects or a motive.
