According to police reports, the unidentified suspect approached the victim, a 25-year-old man, where he was sitting on the steps of a brownstone on MacDonough Street at around 1:00am.

The video shows the suspect talking to the victim, whose name has not yet been released, as people walked by.

The video then shows the suspect suddenly flashing a gun nestled in his waistband that he pulled out, cocked, exchanged a few more words then began to back up toward the sidewalk before firing shots at the victim, striking him multiple times. The suspect then began running eastbound down the street.

The victim was taken to Kings County Hospital where he remains in critical but stable condition.
