<article id="ra-body">A gunman who tried to sneak up on his prey by disguising himself as a woman was mortally wounded late Friday in Queens, New York.<br />
Terrence Payne, 21, approached a group of people on a street in Jamaica, Queens. He had a purse in one hand and a gun in the other, police said.<br />
Witnesses heard gunshots around 9:30 p.m. and saw Payne run away. The wig fell off his head as he tried to escape the gunfire.<br />
Investigators believe two of Payne’s friends picked him up in a black car and dropped him off, dressed only in sneakers and boxer shorts, in front of Jamaica Hospital.<br />
The 6-foot Payne had been shot in the leg and the bullet nicked his femoral artery, which caused him to lose a lot of blood, police said.<br />
Police found five shell casings at the scene, all from the same caliber gun. They also found the wig and the purse Payne was carrying hanging on a fence nearby.<br />
No arrests have been made.</p>

He wore a wig and dress as he tried to ambush a rival in Queens with a gun. He was shot instead and died from his wound</strong></h6>
<p>On Monday morning, Payne’s mother made the gut-wrenching decision to take her son off life support.<br />
“I was shocked. Of course I was devastated,” the mom, Lashawn Steven, said Tuesday.<br />
&#8220;His organs were shutting down so I made the decision that they couldn&#8217;t do nothing else for him. I made the decision to take him off the machine.”<br />
Payne was the oldest of her three sons, she said.<br />
“He loved life and he was very popular. He loves his family. He loved to have fun,&#8221; she said.<br />
Steven said her son was interested in construction and wanted to start his own business. She knew nothing about the disguise sources say Payne was wearing.<br />
It wasn’t clear whether Payne fired any of the shots during the Friday clash.<br />
Terrence Payne had a troubled past. He was arrested nine times since 2011 for marijuana possession, robbery and weapons possession.<br />
He was released from prison on June 15 after spending four months in prison on a gun possession conviction. He was supposed to be on parole until 2022.<br />
Police, are investigating whether past infractions had anything to do with the shooting</p>
