BROOKLYN, NEW YORK - The man found dead and dismembered outside his Brooklyn apartment building was remembered Saturday as a loving, non-violent man who was looking forward to his upcoming birthday, the Daily News has learned.
Darrell Montgomery, slender and just 5-foot-4, was a gentle soul who was going to turn 34 next month, his heartbroken mother told The News Saturday as she wept openly outside her son’s Flatbush apartment building, just steps from the blue trash bin where his hacked-up body was found.
“I was going to the train and they called me and told me (what happened),” said the mom, who wished not to be named. “I passed out on the train.”
Montgomery’s family lives out of state. As soon as they learned what happened, they showed up at the victim’s apartment building on E. 21st St. near Ditmas Ave., but the cops guarding his sixth-floor apartment weren’t able to share anything with them.
“My son was a loving son,” the mom said. “He stays to himself and he didn’t bother nobody.”
