EAST WILLIAMSBURG, Brooklyn (WABC) — A manhunt continues for the second suspect wanted in connection to the deadly shooting of a baby girl in Brooklyn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 7-month-old child, identified as Kaori Patterson-Moore, was being pushed in a stroller by her mother when shots rang out on Wednesday at Humboldt and Moore streets around 1 p.m.<\/p>\n

As people ran for cover, the baby’s mother, father and older sibling fled to a nearby bodega. The mother’s screams could be heard from outside as she realized her child had been hit, in what police are calling a gang-related shooting.<\/p>\n

The child’s father ran to the nearby Woodhull Hospital with the baby, where she was pronounced dead.<\/p>\n

One suspect was taken into custody on Wednesday, but the search continues for another seen on a scooter.<\/p>\n

\"Eyewitness<\/p>\n

Eyewitness News has obtained a photo from police of two individuals that police are actively searching for.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old suspect is now in custody on an unrelated domestic violence-related robbery, and detectives are working to determine his possible involvement in this shooting incident. Police say he is known to be a gang associate from the Marcy Houses.<\/p>\n

The other suspect still being sought is a young male described as wearing light gray pants and a white t-shirt with a black surgical mask over his lower face. He was last seen fleeing towards the Marcy Houses.<\/p>\n

Police released an image of the person they are looking for, and say he is “the subject of a massive NYPD manhunt.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On Thursday morning, civil rights leader Rev. Kevin McCall and neighborhood clergy are announcing a $5,000 reward for information in the tragic shooting.<\/p>\n

The reward will be offered for information leading to the arrest of the suspect responsible for the baby’s death.<\/p>\n

Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).<\/p>\n
