A 33-year-old woman was shot in the back and killed as she stood on a packed Brooklyn sidewalk early Sunday, while a man was wounded, police say. <\/p>\n
Authorities are looking into whether both may have been unintended targets. The man is expected to be OK. <\/p>\n
Jarring surveillance footage shows the block, Bergen Street and Howard Avenue in Crown Heights, flooded with people around 2 a.m. Suddenly, people start to run from the intersection, some of them screaming. <\/p>\n
Shots are heard. More screaming.<\/p>\n
In the chaos, police say the woman and a 34-year-old man were shot — him in the stomach, her in the back. <\/p>\n
Authorities say the victims were part of a larger group when an argument broke out. The gunfire came right after. A witness said there had been a block party, and at least 100 people were in the area at the time.<\/p>\n
The dead woman has been identified as Sofronie Hartzog, of Brooklyn. <\/p>\n
The NYPD is searching for two suspects in the case. No arrests have been made.<\/p>\n
