According to law enforcement sources, the double shooting unfolded at around 2:23 a.m. near Bergen Street and Howard Avenue. Cops from the 73rd Precinct rushed to the scene after a 911 call reported that some kind of an argument ended with a shooting.

EMS rushed the female victim to One Brooklyn Health-One Brookdale Hospital Medical Center, where she could not be saved and was pronounced dead. Her identity is being withheld pending proper family notification. Meanwhile, the male was whisked to Kings County Hospital, where he is expected to survive.
