A restaurant deliveryman was shot and killed at a stoplight in Queens, the police said on Sunday, an act that has shocked and unnerved a neighborhood where he was a beloved fixture.


Zhiwen Yan, 45, was sitting on his scooter waiting for the light to change at an intersection in Forest Hills on Saturday night when a man approached him on foot from across the street and fired several shots, the police said. The gunman then retreated to a car and drove away, the police said.


Mr. Yan was taken to Elmhurst Hospital Center, where he was pronounced dead. There were no arrests as of Sunday evening, according to the police.
