Police have released new surveillance footage of the gunman suspected of shooting Jets cornerback Kris Boyd in Midtown early on Sunday morning Sunday morning.
The video shows a man wearing a black cap, black sweatshirt, black pants, multicolored sneakers, and carrying a black book bag, making a run for it. Another part of the video depicts the suspected gunman talking to a group of people.
Cops say this is the man who opened fire in front of a restaurant and bar located at 156 West 38th St. just after 2 a.m. on Nov. 16, striking Boyd, 29, in the abdomen. EMS rushed the football player to Bellevue Hospital in serious condition. He later stabilized and remains in critical condition.
Police say Boyd had just left the club when the shooter fired the rounds into the crowded street, it is still unclear if Boyd knew the shooter or if he was the intended target.
