The building’s surveillance cameras picked up most of the altercation between the woman and the man which ended in the gunman firing one shot. Security footage, which has been seen by some residents, say the man can be seen walking away calmly as the woman lies in pain.
Lohud.com reports that this probably isn’t the first time that the woman was targeted for violence.
Neighbors believe the woman, who works as a nurse, moved to the Bronx River Road area to get away from a more unsafe neighborhood of Yonkers on the city’s westside.
