The NY EMT worker who was being investigated for ignoring a dying pregnant woman during his coffee break at an Au Bon Pain shop in Brooklyn last year, was shot and killed early this morning in Manhattan, authorities confirmed.

Thirty-two year old Jason Green, of Jackson Heights, Queens, was shot outside the popular nightclub, Greenhouse, around 5:00 a.m. on Sunday.

According to reports, Green and a friend were trying to get into the SoHo nightclub, when bouncers turned them away because his friend was not properly dressed for the club.

Authorities say shortly after leaving the Varick Street club, the men got into a verbal altercation with an armed man in a car.

It is believed that while the men were at the corner of Hudson Street, the suspect fired his gun from inside his vehicle, hitting Green twice in the torso.

Green was taken to a Manhattan hospital, where he later died.

Police said Green’s friend was not injured during the incident.

Green was under investigation for a December 9, 2009 incident at a downtown Brooklyn eatery that left a 23-year-old woman dead.

It was reported that Green and fellow EMT worker and girlfriend, Melisa Jackson, refused to help Eutisha Rennix, a 23-year-old pregnant woman, who was suffering from a seizure while they were on a coffee break.

Co-workers of Rennix’s told authorities that Green and Jackson refused to help Rennix. They said Jackson called a fellow dispatcher to report the incident without attempting to help the woman who was six months pregnant.

Rennix, who had a 3-year-old son, and her premature baby later died at Long Island College Hospital.
