Man gives up after shooting family member at party

After reportedly shooting a woman at a birthday party and killing a relative, a man handed himself in.

Delvin Diaz, 33, hosted a birthday celebration in his Brooklyn flat, and Geoliver Tineo, 23, reportedly attended. Police informed the New York Post that the argument started because Tineo, the nephew of Diaz’s sister-in-law, was either not invited or brought a visitor who was not invited.

Tineo is suspected of shooting at Diaz on Saturday night in front of his residence on Drew Street near Stanley Avenue. According to police, Diaz was hit numerous times.

In addition, a 31-year-old woman was grazed in the head. It was not immediately known if Tineo was targeting her.

Diaz was transported to Brookdale University Hospital Medical Center, where he died of the wounds. The woman was also taken to the same hospital and is in stable condition.

Tineo surrendered to law enforcement officials early Sunday, about four hours after the 9.30pm ordeal.

He has been charged with murder, attempted murder and criminal possession of a loaded firearm.
