A 60‐year‐old Brooklyn man said by investigators to have been involved in narcotics was shot to death last night as he ‘watched televison in a local club.
The police identified the victim as Leo Pastore, who lived above the club, the Authentic Democratic Club, at Conselyea Street in the Williamsburg section.
The police said the dead man has been alone in the club at about 11:30 P.M. when the door opened and three shots were fired. There were no political overtones to the shooting, the police said.
In 1964, Mr. Pastore's apartment was raided by the police, who charged that it was a headquarters for a large‐scale policy operation.
