Chilling video released by the NYPD captured the execution-style slaying of a 26-year-old Brooklyn man in Queens last weekend.
The victim, Peter Panthier, was gunned down at point-blank range while walking alongside his killer outside of 624 Grassmere Terrace in Far Rockaway at about 8:10 p.m. Saturday, according to cops.
Footage of the shooting shows the pair walking casually together on a sidewalk before the suspect fires a bullet into Panthier’s head.

A robber was caught on camera forcing a 54-year-old man to lie down in a Bronx apartment at gunpoint — stealing nearly $40,000 in jewelry, including a diamond-studded Rolex, according to cops.
Footage from just before 3:30 p.m. Tuesday shows the victim first forced to raise his hands as a robber pulls a handgun from his camouflage jacket and points it straight at him.
As the attacker appears to cock the weapon, the victim removes his own fur-lined parka-style coat and slowly crawls face-forward on the floor near two rows of cinema-style seats.
