The youngster was playing at the Rudd Playground on Aberdeen St., when he dropped through a grate leading to an area in the Bushwick Ave.-Aberdeen St. L-train station just after 5 p.m., police said.
Boyce Hayward, 26, was wrung up on an indictment, which charged him not only with the late night May 12 Bedford-Stuyvesant shootout during which he allegedly shot NYPD Officer Brian McGurran, but also with another homicide that occurred the same day.
