A hardworking accounting student working the night shift at a Bronx gas station to send money back to his family in Africa was shot dead at point blank range in a robbery Tuesday night.

Police are looking for the shooter of Lamin Sillah, 28, a recent immigrant from Gambia who was fatally shot in the torso during a confrontation with the gunman.

According to police, the thief and a lookout rolled up on bikes to RC Petroleum at E. 182nd St. and Southern Blvd. at 9:40 p.m. and promptly robbed an outside attendant of $30.

That victim wasn’t harmed, police said.
