In the summer of 2025, a quiet residential street in the Ozone Park neighborhood of Queens, New York, became the scene of a grim discovery. On the afternoon of Sunday, June 29th, police responded to a 911 call and found a man slumped over in the driver's seat of a Buick with California license plates. The vehicle was parked in front of 135-22 97th Street, and upon arrival, officers found the man unconscious and unresponsive.
He had sustained a fatal gunshot wound to the head.
Emergency medical services were dispatched to the location, but it was too late. The man, identified as 32-year-old Mujibullah Ghulamhazrat of Temecula, California, was pronounced dead at the scene. Residents in the area had reportedly noticed the oddly parked car before the authorities were alerted. The vehicle was sticking out into the intersection of 97th Street and 135th Road, drawing attention from neighbors.
As of early July 2025, the investigation into the death of Mujibullah Ghulamhazrat was ongoing. The New York Police Department had not yet determined a motive for the shooting. No arrests had been made in connection with the case, and a description of any potential suspect or suspects had not been released to the public. Detectives were continuing to canvass the area for evidence and witnesses who might be able to provide information about the circumstances that led to the fatal shooting.
