A 26-year-old man was fatally shot yesterday on a Bronx street by men who drove up in a car, pulled a handgun out of the trunk and shot him in the back, the police said.

The victim, whom the police did not identify, was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx, where he was pronounced dead, the police said.

The shooting occurred shortly after 6 p.m. on Marion Avenue near Poe Park in the Bedford Park neighborhood. The police said that a black car with three or four people inside stopped where the man was standing.

Two of the men left the car and opened the trunk, and one of them removed what the police described as a black and silver handgun. The police said they did not recover a weapon.

The men approached the victim, shot him, then fled in the black car, the police said.
