Police are looking for the gunman who opened fire and shot a man in broad daylight on a busy Norwood street.
According to police spokeswoman, Detective Annette Shelton, the incident took place in front of the Dunkin’ Donuts, located at 47 East Gun Hill Road at Dekalb Avenue, at 2:47 p.m. on Saturday, January 22.
Shelton said of the incident, “A 21-year-old male was shot in the back and was transported to Montefiore Hospital by private means,” and the unidentified victim remains in stable condition.
Shelton could not provide a description of the suspect. She added that there had been no arrests, and the investigation remains “ongoing.”
A post by a Citizen’s App user referred to two male suspects who had been involved in a shooting on the same date. The post referred to one suspect who had fled northbound on Dekalb, and another who had jumped into a blue Honda Accord with TLC plates, and then traveled eastbound on East Gun Hill Road.
