Stray bullet kills Brooklyn teen

The gang banging killer of a Brooklyn high school freshman was taken into custody by the New York Police Department yesterday.

Sean Gordon, 30, is accused of shooting 16-year-old Tavin Alvas on Oct. 9 with a stray bullet. Alvas died some days later.

Gordon, a Bloods gang member, has been a career felon with charges including drug possession, attempted murder, criminal possession of a weapon and assault. He was on probation when he was picked up on a drug warrant Jan. 10.

Instead of being sentenced to a possible five to 15 years for parole violation, Gordon was released on June 27 and credited with five months served.

On the morning of Oct. 9, Gordon allegedly fired his weapon into the air when fighting with his girlfriend, hitting Alvas when he peeked out his window.
