A 31-year-old member of the Law & Order: Organized Crime cast was shot and killed outside the New York City location where he oversaw parking enforcement.

NBC acknowledged that the casualty was a crew worker employed by the network in a statement to EW.

The news that one of our staff members had been murdered early this morning and had died as a result surprised and grieved us much, the statement said.
