Baby Killed in Brooklyn Stroller Shooting, Suspects Arrested

0:00On April 4th, a seven-month-old baby girl named Kaori Patterson Moore was shot and killed in her stroller during a family walk in Brooklyn on Wednesday afternoon around 1.20pm. Her parents were outgrabbing baby supplies when a stray bullet hit her, also grazing her little brother Kaisen on the back. The whole family rushed her to the hospital, but she didn't make it. Two suspects are now in custody. Twenty-one-year-old, a Murray Green, got hit with three counts of murder charges on Friday. As a alleged accomplice, 18-year-old Matthew Rodriguez was picked up that same evening in Pennsylvania, with charges still pending. Mayor Zoran Mamdani jumped on the gun violence angle at a press conference, calling it a devastating reminder without naming the suspects or their role. He stressed how too many kids never make it to adulthood and parents face unthinkable loss. Councilwoman Vicki Paladino fired back hard, blasting the mayor for dodging blame on the criminals, who keep getting released onto the streets, with no real consequences.

The mom denies any gang ties and just wants full justice, so those responsible stay locked up for good. This tragedy hits deep in the heart of the city.
