Kaori Patterson-Moore, a 7-month-old girl, was fatally shot in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, by suspects who fled on a moped. The shooting occurred around 1:20 p.m. when a stray bullet struck the infant, who was not the intended target. Investigators believe the incident may be gang-related. One suspect was later apprehended after seeking medical treatment for injuries sustained during a crash while fleeing. The second suspect remains at large, and police are working to determine the role of the apprehended suspect in the shooting.
