The suspects in the Brooklyn shooting that killed a 7-month-old girl<\/a> are expected to be arraigned.<\/p>\n

Amuri Greene, 21, and Matthew Rodriguez, 18,<\/a> will be in a Manhattan courtroom Tuesday morning. They were allegedly involved in the stray-bullet shooting that killed Kaori Patterson-Moore two weeks ago. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Police say Greene was on the back of a moped driven by Rodriguez in East Williamsburg. Greene fired the fatal shot before the two took off, prosecutors say.<\/p>\n

He is facing a host of charges, including second-degree murder, attempted murder and endangering the welfare of a child. Rodriguez was charged with second-degree murder, attempted murder and assault, among others.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On just the second-degree murder charge, both men would face 25 years to life in prison if convicted. \u00a0<\/p>\n

What happened to Kaori Patterson-Moore?<\/p>\n

The little girl was struck by a bullet while in a stroller at Moore and Humboldt streets on April 1. Her mother ducked into a nearby store when she heard gunshots. Then, she noticed her baby bleeding.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Kaori’s father rushed her to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead.<\/p>\n

The bullet also grazed her 2-year-old brother, according to the Brooklyn District Attorney.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Investigators believe the shooting may have been gang-related.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Family remembers their baby girl\u00a0<\/p>\n

Family<\/a>\u00a0and community members attended the funeral for Kaori<\/a> on Monday night.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Godfather Raheem Jennings said Kaori’s mother<\/a>, Lianna Charles-Moore, is facing an unimaginable loss.<\/p>\n

“It was horrible. They had to take her out. She ran out crying, very hysterical, and was chased out by the support system,” he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Charles-Moore previously told CBS News New York that Kaori was always laughing, smiling and brightening her family’s day.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
