Cops are looking for the gunman who shot and injured a 22-year-old Amazon truck driver during an argument in Brooklyn on Monday morning.
Law enforcement sources said the victim suffered only a graze wound to his face and is now recovering.
Police said the daring daytime shooting happened at about 11:19 a.m. on May 31 near the corner of DeKalb and Wyckoff Avenues in Bushwick.
According to police sources, the victim was inside the Amazon delivery truck he had parked moments earlier when he got into a verbal argument with the shooter, described only as an unknown male. The reasons for the dispute remain unknown at this time, sources said.
The words turned bloody, cops said, when the shooter pulled out a gun and fired a shot through the window that grazed the worker’s face. After opening fire, the perpetrator fled on foot in an unknown direction.
Officers from the 83rd Precinct and EMS units responded to the incident. Paramedics brought the victim to nearby Wyckoff Heights Medical Center for treatment.
So far, no arrests have been made in the ongoing investigation.
