The New York City Police Department on Friday evening said officers are searching for a lone gunman after a 3-year-old girl was shot while leaving her daycare center with her father.
The toddler was hit in the shoulder and is expected to survive. She was leaving a daycare in the Brownsville neighborhood of Brooklyn around 6 p.m. ET when the gunman opened fire. Chief of Department Kenneth Corey told reporters outside of the daycare center.
"Someone knows him," Corey added, holding up a photo of the masked suspect."Help us catch him before he shoots another child."
