An Elmont man has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for
a 2019 shooting in Hempstead. 

Earlier this year, 26-year-old Floyd McNeil was convicted
following a jury trial for multiple charges, including attempted murder and
assault. 

Prosecutors
say McNeil shot 28-year-old Malachi Blaylock four times in the back. 

When the victim tried to run, McNeil followed him and
continued to fire shots. 

McNeil then took off in an Uber and was arrested days
later. 

The
shooting left Baylock seriously injured. 

As News 12
has reported, McNeil is also facing charges for a 2020 shooting that killed a
21-year-old in Freeport. 

Earlier this year, 26-year-old Floyd McNeil was convicted following a jury trial for multiple charges, including attempted murder and assault.

We top out to a high of 41. By the time we're coming home from work around five o'clock, 39 degrees, we're in the thirties, skies will clear overnight and tomorrow morning, cold temperatures around 25 to 30 degrees. So out the door today this afternoon, 41 degrees, it's cold that rain and snow shower, wind chills have been in the twenties and thirties. So if you're outside the gloves, the hat, the warm boots and also the scarf and keep yourself warm. The rest of today, take a look. Now, tomorrow. So it's cold today. Tomorrow, the chance of a rain or snow shower in the afternoon hours of Thursday, a high of only 40 to start off hot for Thursday night, slight chance of a rain or snow shower early and then overnight hours of Thursday into Friday, skies will start to clear and weather will be improving on your Friday.
