Police released new footage Thursday of a shootout that took place next to Boys Prep Bronx Elementary School in early October.
In the video, three masked men can be seen walking down the street and one of them pulled out his gun to shoot. From another angle, another man in a grey hoodie is also seen shooting from behind a van. The individuals then fled the area on foot.
The incident happened on Oct. 5 around 2:50 p.m. on East 150th Street, right when school was being let out. Children could even be seen walking out of school as the shooting occurred.
Police say no one was injured, and they are now looking for the individuals in the video for reckless endangerment.
Anyone with information about the two groups involved are asked to contact Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS.
