BRONX, NEW YORK - Four men were shot – two of them fatally – during a violent seven-hour, broad-daylight stretch in the Bronx Tuesday, cops said.
The mayhem began around 8:10 a.m. when a 32-year-old man was shot in the back outside an apartment building on Anthony Avenue near Mount Hope Place, cops said.
He was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries, authorities said.
The motive for the deadly shooting is unclear.
Surveillance footage released by the NYPD hours later captures the still-at-large suspect pacing around in the lobby with his hood pulled up over his head before vanishing from view.
He is described as about 50 years old with a dark complexion and medium build, and was last seen wearing a black hoodie, black pants, and blue sneakers.
The violence continued around 1:10 p.m. outside a public housing building on Croes Avenue near Seward Avenue, part of NYCHA’s Sack Wern development, cops said.
A 34-year-old man was shot once in the chest, and rushed to Jacobi Medical Center, where he too was pronounced dead, cops said.
Two male suspects fled on foot, heading north on Croes Avenue.
One was last seen wearing a black or gray hoodie, black pants, and black Jordan sneakers, police sources said.
