Police have arrested the gunman who killed one man and shot three other people in a Coney Island housing project on Friday, reported by New York Post. The cops took gunman Joseph Brown into custody at his friend's apartment at about 6 a.m. Saturday morning. His specific charges were pending, as of Saturday afternoon, according to the Associated Press.

Brown allegedly coaxed 62-year-old Eva Natal into letting him inside a fifth-floor apartment at the Gravesend Houses on West 33rd Street in Brooklyn on Friday, at about 4 p.m, sources said.

He proceeded to her son's Matt's bedroom, where he closed the door and allegedly opened fire.

As Brown ran out of the apartment, he allegedly shot Eva in the stomach and shot at two others in the living room.

NYPD hostage negotiators were on the scene at one point because they believed Brown had barricaded himself in a nearby building, but cops later left the area.

Eva Natal was rushed to Lutheran Hospital where she was in serious but stable condition. Matt Natal, 24, was shot in the head and also taken to Lutheran, where he was in critical condition. Another son of Eva's, who is 40, was grazed by a bullet in the head. He was well enough to remain at the scene and be interviewed by cops, according to Washington Post.

The dead man - identified by his sister as Angel Rivera, 28 - was a friend of one of Natal's sons.

Brown was arrested early Saturday morning, with likely murder charges pending.
