The shooter was eventually taken into custody and is awaiting potential charges.
On Wednesday afternoon, 82nd Avenue and Queens Boulevard was still a crime scene as detectives and District Attorney Melinda Katz survey the area. CBS2 was able to watch the unreleased building surveillance video. It shows the encounter in an alleyway into the garage entrance. The tenant is seen backpedaling as he's approached by a man holding a sharp object in his right hand. The 65-year-old tenant is seen taking out a revolver, in full-view of the assailant, who continues to approach. Seconds later, multiple gunshots were fired. The shooter goes inside and eventually calls police.
According to police sources, the shooter will be charged with possession of an unlicensed weapon without a permit, but will not be charged in the death of the assailant.
