Singleton died after two men intervened when he stabbed a woman in a domestic dispute, authorities said.
The shooting happened about 4:05 p.m. Thursday as part of a domestic dispute in the 4100 block of West 21st Place, according to police.
Singleton got into a fight with a 25-year-old woman and stabbed her, police said Tuesday. Two men intervened, and one of them shot Singleton, police said.
The woman, who was stabbed several times, was taken initially in serious condition to Mount Sinai Hospital.
The two men who intervened were questioned by detectives and later released without charges, said Officer Thomas Sweeney, a police spokesman.
