NEW YORK — A manhunt continues for the second suspect wanted in connection to the deadly shooting of a baby girl in Brooklyn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The alleged shooter is in custody but police are actively searching for the suspect who drove the moped involved in the shooting.<\/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

\"Kaori<\/p>\n

The suspected gunman was identified as Amare Green, 21, will be charged with murder and two counts of attempted murder, the NYPD said Thursday.<\/p>\n

Green is a known associate of a street gang operating out of a public housing project in Brooklyn, Chief of Detectives Joe Kenny said. Investigators are looking into whether the baby’s father may have been the intended target as part of a dispute with a rival gang.<\/p>\n

As people ran for cover, the baby’s mother, father and 2-year-old brother 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

The 2-year-old boy, who was also in the stroller, was grazed in the back but is OK.<\/p>\n

The suspects tried getting away on the moped northbound on Humboldt Street. Surveillance video shows them going the wrong way down a one-way street before they collided with a car and both suspects were thrown from the moped.<\/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 alleged gunman and rear passenger landed so hard his shoes flew off.<\/p>\n

He was rushed to a hospital where he was later taken into custody for an unrelated incident — a domestic violence-related robbery.<\/p>\n

Police are still trying to track down the other suspect who was driving the moped.<\/p>\n

He is described as a young male last seen 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).
