Holloman was shot in front of an apartment building on Herkimer St. near Rochester Avenue. He suffered 'multiple' gunshot wounds, police said.
'For a while we tried to make an arrest and get this guy off the street,' police said. 'The guy should be behind bars, should be in jail.'
'I am relieved but it will never bring my brother back,' said Gardenia Holloman, 32, Kevin Holloman's sister, to the Daily News. 'So it's bittersweet.'
'He was life of the party. All he did was dance and make you laugh, and he was loving and kind. He was a wonderful uncle to three little girls and he loved them.

'He was a mama's boy. Him and my mom were very close. My mother passed away right after him. She died of a broken heart. It messed my mother up badly. She couldn't take it.'
That shooting happened just six blocks away from where Monday's McDonald's shooting occurred which saw worker Matthew Jeremiah Webb shot in the neck.
Webb, 23, is in currently in critical condition in hospital.
'I'm really not ready for this,' Webb's mother told the New York Post outside Brooklyn's Brookdale Hospital where her son is battling to stay alive.
'I'm just going back and forth with so many flashes in mind. My mind is not stable.'

His mother, Lisa Fulmore, said she did not know why her son had a gun on him.
Fulmore claims that her son was acting in self-defense and that the McDonald's employee was still on the clock when he left the restaurant and went looking for her son following the spat.
The tragic events unfolded around 7pm on Monday shortly after Fulmore and the employees got into a heated argument when she returned to the fast-food joint in Bedford-Stuyvesant to complain about her fries being cold.
Fulmore, 40, said she was on FaceTime with her son who soon showed up at the store and stormed inside to defend his mother despite her pleas to stay away because she said she didn't want him to get into any trouble.
Morgan and one of the employees, Webb, got into a dispute of their own inside the restaurant that at some point spilled outside and resulted in Morgan allegedly shooting the victim in the neck.

Morgan's mother told DailyMail.com that her son had left the store and 10-15 minutes had passed before the McDonald's employee came over to her and asked where her son was before walking out of the store.
'He went looking for my son,' she said. 'The next thing you know, maybe like 10 minutes later, you hear a gunshot. So I ran to the door.'
Fulmore added that her son and his girlfriend were at the nearby 'chicken spot' to get food when the McDonald's employee allegedly went looking for him.
Morgan's girlfriend Camellia Dunlap, 18, was also charged following the incident with two counts of criminal possession of a weapon.
She allegedly ran off with Morgan's gun after the shooting.
Fulmore told the New York Post on Tuesday that she had spoken to her son after the shooting.
'I talked to my son with the cops. My son is just saying that he gotta do what he gotta do and the [victim] came after him and whatever happened, happened,' she said.
Fulmore further explained to DailyMail.com that her son was only defending himself after the employee came looking for him several minutes after the heated spat.
'My son was gone from the restaurant and boy was asking me for my son while he was still on the clock... he went looking for my son,' she said.
She added that she didn't know about the 9mm gun he allegedly had on him.
'I don't promote him having a gun or shooting anyone,' she said. 'I feel really bad that this boy is fighting for his life, and very sad I can't fix this.'
The Brooklyn mom then explained what led up to the shooting after she ordered McDonald's on her phone and went to the location on Fulton Street to pick it up.
'The fries were cold,' Fulmore said. 'I asked the girl to change the French fries because the fries was cold. She went to the French fry machine for maybe 10 seconds and brought back fries, so I thought they was new fries, so I had left.'
