Woman dead after broad
daylight shooting in Park Slope
BY BEN VERDE
A woman was killed during
a mid-afternoon shooting
in Park Slope, according to the
NYPD.
Police say a gun-toting
woman shot the 52-year-old victim
once in the head on Fourth
Avenue near St. Mark’s Place
at around 1:00 pm. Paramedics
rushed the victim to Methodist
Hospital where she was pronounced
dead at 1:26 pm.
The suspect, who remains
at large, is described as a
woman with dreadlocks who is
wearing all black.
At the crime scene, a bag of
grapes, a small pool of blood,
and a discarded piece of medical
equipment could be seen on
the ground while police taped
off the area.
Gun violence is exceedingly
rare in Park Slope, with
this being the fi rst incident recorded
in the 78th precinct in
2021, according to city data. Police on scene at a shooting in Park Slope. Photo by Ben Verde
