Race Day Live (NEW YORK CITY) – Four crooks shot two men inside an illegal Queens gambling parlor last month, killing one, while swooping up a big stash of marijuana, officials said, releasing images of the bundled-up culprits and their getaway vehicles.

Yun Li, 37, was shot in the head during a botched cocaine theft at a dice joint on Haight Street at 41st Avenue, only blocks from his Flushing home, around 9:20 p.m. on December 19, according to cops and sources.

Li was clinging to life in the hospital for five days before dying from his injuries on December 23, according to police.

The violent quartet held “numerous victims” at gunpoint before storming into the parlor and seizing “multiple pounds of marijuana,” according to the NYPD.
