Two men were found shot and killed on Thursday in a Queens basement in what investigators believe was a double homicide. The victims — who were not immediately identified — were both shot multiple times in the head at around noon near the corner of 111th Avenue and 156th Street, according to NY1. Neighbors were shocked by the slayings, which took place on a block that one passerby called "quiet." "Double homicide? Ain't nothing really happen around here. I've been over here working at this church for eight years. Ain't no killings over here."
