Police are investigating after a 63-year-old was found bludgeoned to death inside his Bronx apartment.
Elvin Ramirez was found dead in his apartment on Grand Concourse in University Heights around 6 p.m. Thursday.
A bloody shovel was found next to his body.
Police want to speak to his roommate, who has not been seen since it happened. Police say the two had an argument on Wednesday.
A makeshift memorial is outside his apartment.
Ramirez’s sister, Elba, said she hopes police find whoever did it.
“I’m praying that the guy, that the police catch him,” Elba Ramirez said. “I’m sorry anyway for him because my brother, you know, he had diabetes, and I never believed that my brother will die this manner because he was very nice.”
Ramirez and his roommate also worked together at the same restaurant near their apartment.
The roommate is described as a young man in his 20s.
The manager of the restaurant says the roommate had been drinking and was sent home to calm down.
