Remarkable footage captured some of the recent gang battles that unleashed 182 bullets in the middle of Brooklyn streets \u2014 with one brazen thug firing minutes after a court-ordered meeting, officials said Monday.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s unnerving,\u201d admitted borough District Attorney Eric Gonzalez, who picked up a gun used in one of the crimes to show reporters at the briefing but said he wouldn\u2019t handle another \u2014 because it still had blood on it.<\/p>\n
The chilling videos \u201cgive you a sense of the brutal war that is being waged on some of our streets,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Gunmen indiscriminantly open fire on a Brooklyn home last year. <\/p>\n
The horrific caught-on-camera gun violence included several of 16 shootings involving 15 alleged gang members whose arrests were announced by Gonzalez and NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch.<\/p>\n
The bloodshed pitted Coney Island-based gangs such as Fly Ooter Gang, a k a FOG, and \u201cKoney Sides\u201d against central Brooklyn criminal groups includinng Folk Nation, WOOO and Choo.<\/p>\n
The rivals \u201cterrorized\u201d communities for more than a year, leaving an innocent 16-year-old boy paralyzed and three other bystanders, including another 16-year-old, caught in the crosshairs.<\/p>\n
A 17-year-old FOG\/Koney Sides gang member also was fatally shot in the head by friendly fire during one street battle with Folk Nation \u2014 part of the slew of violence involving nearly 200 bullets, authorities said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think what\u2019s troubling is how trigger-happy these young men appear to be,\u201d the top prosecutor said.<\/p>\n
Video of an April 27, 2025, shootout showed Tamari Carmona crumple to the ground at the Flatbush Gardens Housing Complex after he was shot in the head and killed as his accomplice fled the scene and left him to die.<\/p>\n
Another shameless shooting recorded by surveillance started when Christopher Moore, 21, ran into rival gang members in the lobby at the Center for Justice Innovation in downtown Brooklyn on March 2 as part of his court-mandated supervised release, Gonzalez said.<\/p>\n

Moore toted a loaded gun to his appointment, then started firing at the fleeing victims the moment they left the building in the middle of the day, Gonzalez said.<\/p>\n
The suspect missed his targets, even though he shot at one rival at close range, Gonzalez said. <\/p>\n
\u201cI find that video really unnerving because he\u2019s in a building where he\u2019s a known person \u2026 bringing a loaded firearm to his supervised-release meeting,\u201d Gonzalez said.<\/p>\n
Another video showed four gang members indiscriminantly fire nearly 20 shots into a Canarsie home May 20, 2025, around 8 p.m. <\/p>\n
Gonzalez picked up one of the three guns involved in that crime and showed it to reporters \u2014 although he later declined to handle a weapon from a separate \u201cassassination attempt\u201d on a drill rapper in Lefferts Garden because it still had blood on it from the wounded man.<\/p>\n

Other footage from a Feb. 20 shooting captured three gunmen rattling off 30 rounds at three people standing on an East Flatbush corner close to midnight.<\/p>\n
An innocent 16-year-old boy was caught up in that shooting and suffered an abdomen wound, prosecutors said.<\/p>\n
