The NYPD is searching for three people it says are connected to the deadly shooting of a 69-year-old grandmother Wednesday, who was shot in the face as she was returning home after getting lunch.
The shooting happened around 12:30 p.m. near 110th Street and Madison Avenue in East Harlem.
Friends of the victim, Robin Wright, said she lived across the street from where she was killed. She was walking home after picking up lunch when she was shot in the face, police said.
Witnesses said they heard at least a dozen shots, but they do not believe Wright was the intended target.
Images from the scene showed a solitary walker with blood on a corner that was taped off with police vehicles nearby.
Police are looking for three men, all wearing black face masks, who were last seen fleeing on Madison Avenue.
The investigation is ongoing.
