Killers and gang wars: the situation on the streets of New York resembles a gangster movie

The situation on the streets of New York is reminiscent of crime films. Killers attack their victims in broad daylight - they endanger children and are not afraid of the police. Here are two horrific incidents this week.

Hitman attack in Brooklyn

On the morning of June 17 in Bushwick, Brooklyn, an event took place that resembled a scene from a crime movie. Men in two cars attempted a coordinated assassination attempt on a third. All this got on the video, writes Fox.

At about 7:15 am on June 17, a 19-year-old man was in his car on Granite Street, according to NYPD.

When another car blocked his way, the victim sensed danger and, trying to escape, drove onto the sidewalk. But the attempt failed - he soon had an accident.

Then a second car drove up, from which they started shooting at the guy while he was still in the wrecked private car.

The shooter missed, and the man was not seriously injured.

Police released video footage of the incident in the hope that someone would help them identify those involved. For help in catching them, they offer a reward of $ 3500.

Shooting near children

A grisly video posted by New York City police shows an armed suspect chasing and shooting a 24-year-old man multiple times when he is just inches from two young children.

The police are looking for the shooter, as well as the second man who helped him escape on a scooter.

The incident took place on June 17 at about 18:45 on Sheridan Avenue. Children 10 and 5 years old (sister and brother), who were just a few steps from their home, found themselves in the very epicenter of the shootout. The killer tried to shoot a 24-year-old gang member, who, while fleeing, fell on the children on the sidewalk. The killer fired about a dozen shots. Fortunately, the children miraculously managed to avoid injury.

According to the police, the victim was wounded in the leg and back and was taken to a nearby hospital. There is no threat to his life.
