FBI investigating DC Navy Yard shooter’s Brooklyn connection
Family lives in Bed-Stuy
The mother, brother, sister and brother-in-law of Aaron Alexis, the infamous Washington Navy Yard shooter, live in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.
Both the FBI and NYPD have interviewed Alexis’ mom at her Putnam Avenue home, according to WNBC. Posters on Twitter said police closed the street Monday evening while the investigation was ongoing.
His aunt Helen Weeks told the Washington Post that “Alexis grew up in Brooklyn with his mother, Sarah, and father, Anthony Alexis.”
