The NYPD is asking for the public's help to identify a woman who is wanted in connection with a shooting that injured two people in Fordham.
Investigators say the 27-year-old woman was shot in the back, and a 42-year-old man was shot in the hand. It happened in front of a barber shop on Briggs Avenue near East Kingsbridge Road just after midnight on Nov. 6.
Those who live in the area say people were gathered under the scaffolding when they heard at least four gunshots.
"I was just going in, and I heard about four, five shots. My dog ran before I did, it's very scary because bullets don't know where they're going these days," said Eddie Ford, who was walking his dog at the time.
Both victims were taken to Saint Barnabas Hospital and are expected to recover.
Police say the unidentified suspect ran east on Briggs Avenue. She was last seen wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and tan pants.
The NYPD is asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
