BUSHWICK – Police are looking for a man who fired a gun at a 27-year old inside a Broadway deli last Friday in Bushwick.

The suspect entered the establishment at 1717 Broadway, near the Chauncey JMZ stop, at 1:30 am on Friday. Police said he fired at least one shot from a handgun at his target—who wasn’t hit.

In the surveillance video below, the suspect can be seen exchanging words with someone, before firing one shot. When he does, a glass bottle thrown from off camera smashes into the door as he ducks out.

An investigation is ongoing, though police said the victim was described as “non-cooperative” in their efforts.
