Father of fourfatally shot during clash over parking in his driveway: cops

A Bronx father of four was fatally shot early Sunday during a clash over a car blocking his driveway, cops said. 

Trevor Hughes, 49, was blasted in the torso after he got into a heated exchange with Lavar Davis, 46, who sat parked in his driveway just before 2 a.m. Sunday outside his home on Fowler Avenue near Morris Park Avenue, according to authorities. 

A neighbor told WABC that Hughes, a father of four, often parked in his own driveway – but when he got home early Sunday, another car with two men inside, including Davis, was occupying the spot.

Hughes argued with two men inside the offending car when he was shot in the torso, a neighbor said.

Hughes, who was a DJ, according to his social media posts, confronted the pair before the deadly violence erupted, neighbor Akmell Edwards told the network.

“They dispute this is not a driveway,” he said. “How you could dispute this is not a driveway when it’s clearly a driveway?”

Hughes was rushed to Jacobi Medical Center, where he died, police said.

Davis was arrested later in the evening and charged with second-degree murder, cops said. 

His arraignment in Bronx Criminal Court was pending early Monday afternoon.

Edwards told WABC his slain neighbor was a hard worker who often went the extra mile for others. 

“If I go out to work early and there is snow, he’s going to shovel in the snow for my mother-in-law. Well, he helped me cut the trees and do weird things in the house,” Edwards said. “I’m just, can’t even get the words. Caught off guard, just caught off guard.”
