A 26-year-old Bronx man was taken into custody Tuesday, a day after he was believed to have fatally shot one woman and injured two others in front of a Flatiron nightclub, police said.
Jamison Dalone was charged with second-degree murder, two counts of assault and other charges in the shooting that killed 24-year-old Walikque Faussett early Monday.
Dalone apparently had been kicked out of Club Motivo after getting into a fight inside the swanky club, only to return with his gun. Police did not believe Faussett was the intended target.
Faussett was fatally shot in the back about 4 a.m. on 21st Street, near Broadway. Two other women, ages 25 and 30, were also shot. Both women were taken to Bellevue Hospital Center in stable condition.
