At around 7 pm on January 29, a 25-year-old male was standing in front of a Soundview nail salon at 1207 Stratford Avenue. Cops said a group of young men approached him and then attacked.
The attackers punched and kicked the victim repeatedly, cops said. Then as the victim tried to get away, one of the attackers pulled out a handgun and opened fire, cops said.
The gunman missed and the victim fled.
When police arrived to question the victim he refused medical treatment.
The NYPD released new surveillance video of the five suspects taken from inside a convenience store. All the suspects are described as males with dark complexions.
Four of the five suspects wore black bubble jackets one of which was a North Face jacket. One of the suspects wore a winter coat with a tan fur collar. He also has a mustache.
All calls are strictly confidential.
