An off-duty state correction officer visiting family in Brooklyn was killed by a cold-blooded gunman who kept pumping bullets into his bleeding body, police and witnesses said. Jeremie Kane, 30, was shot twice in the head and four times in the chest moments after he stepped out of a Crown Heights barbershop at 12:45 a.m. Sunday, police said. Kane was already slumped over on the sidewalk and rapidly losing blood when the gunman fired his final rounds, witnesses said. "I looked out the window and a guy was lying on the ground," said witness Ahmed Mudhasser, who lives on the same Nostrand Ave. block where Kane was shot. When emergency personnel arrived, "The [paramedic] yelled, 'Stay with us! Try to breathe!'" said Mudhasser, 18. Kane, assigned to the upstate Sing Sing prison, died at Kings County Hospital minutes after he was shot in front of Millie's Infinite Image Salon. Kane had been hanging out in the barbershop for about an hour when he stepped outside to make a cell phone call, police said. Minutes later, he got into a confrontation with another man, who pulled out a high-powered handgun and started shooting, witnesses said. "I heard the shots," said a bartender at the neighboring Starlight Lounge who declined to give her name. "It could have been me that was killed." Investigators were not certain what prompted the deadly shooting and have not ruled out that it was a robbery attempt, a police source said. Patrons in the barbershop were not able to give detectives a clear description of the shooter. Investigators returned to the Crown Heights block hours later to look for surveillance video. Kane, who joined the Correction Department in 2005, had been on leave since May 23 after filing a workers' compensation claim, a department spokeswoman said. Kane was staying with his mother, who was too distraught to speak to reporters Sunday.
