The New York Police Department said Friday the suspected gunman in the horrific death of a baby girl in a stroller in Brooklyn is facing murder charges as the manhunt for a second suspect continued two days after the shooting. 

Amuri Greene is charged with three counts of murder and one of attempted murder, in addition to other counts, after police said he fatally shot 7-month-old Kaori Patterson-Moore with a stray bullet in East Williamsburg. 

1 suspect charged, 1 still missing

The NYPD believes Greene, 21, was on the back of a scooter when he pulled the trigger in a gang-related shooting on Wednesday afternoon, killing the baby being pushed in a stroller along Humboldt Street.

“We know that he is a gang associate out of the Marcy Houses. And at this point right now, there is a gang in the Bushwick Houses called M.O.E., and we’re looking to see the possible connection,” NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said.

The New York City Police Department asked for help identifying two individuals wanted in connection with the shooting that killed a baby in Brooklyn.

Greene was also charged with five counts of criminal possession of a weapon, two counts of attempted criminal possession of a weapon, and two counts of assault.   

He was in police custody at the hospital and no date for his arraignment has been set, according to officials. 

The scooter driver, who crashed into oncoming traffic after the gunfire, has not been caught, police said.  

Neighbors determined to track down driver

Neighborhood residents said they’re determined to help investigators find the second suspect who killed their neighbor, Lianna Charles-Moore’s daughter. 

“She didn’t deserve that. She’s just learning how to talk, how to sit up and do things for herself,” Tykasia Mccants said.

“If you’re human, you feel for the parents of that child, and I hope those two guys never get the chance to walk the streets, like that baby never got a chance to walk,” another neighbor said. 

Investigators are asking anyone with information about the second suspect to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477), or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). You can also submit a tip via their website or via DM on Twitter, @NYPDTips. All calls are kept confidential. 

Neighborhood full of grief

Family and friends will hold a candlelight vigil Friday and release pink balloons into the night sky Friday at the corner where 7-month-old Kaori was slain. 

A memorial with teddy bears and Easter bunnies has been growing at the scene since the shooting.

The pain has been especially strong among parents in the neighborhood. 

“I know what they’re going through right now, so [this is] to show my respect and condolences for the family,” Charles Ford said. 

“It gave me chills when I seen her mom crying, and I tell my mother I have to come and bring something,” Mccants said. 

Charles-Moore discussed the grief of losing her daughter in an exclusive interview with CBS News New York on Thursday. 

“I can’t smell her, can’t kiss her. I can’t wake up and feed her her bottle. I can’t dress her. Everything I wanted to do with her, I can’t do with her anymore,” she said.

Kaori’s grandmother, Linda Oyinkoinyan, said she’s heartbroken, but forgave the people involved in the shooting.
