A 30-year-old man is being questioned by police after two men were shot and killed in Bronx early Friday, authorities say.

Police say the shots were fired at about 4:45 a.m. on Rombouts Avenue in Eastchester. When crews arrived, they found a man in his 20s dead in a car with a gunshot wound to the head. 

A 23-year-old man who had also been in the car was shot multiple times in the torso, police say. He was taken to Jacobi Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. 

Police say one gun was recovered from the man taken into custody for questioning. A second gun was recovered near the car where the men were shot.
