FORT GREENE — Police are searching for three suspects for shooting a 47-year-old man in the buttocks outside a popular bar.

Footage taken from a nearby security camera — on Aug. 15 around 1:50 a.m. — shows one suspect handing another a gun. That man then waits outside The Alibi, at 242 DeKalb Ave., according to police.

The video then shows the other two suspects entering the bar where the victim is believed to have been.

The victim later leaves the bar and heads to his car, that is parked near Clermont Avenue, where the gunman shoots at him "multiple times," according to police.

The first suspect flees in a dark-colored Jeep SUV and the other two suspects leave in a light-colored sedan.

The victim was taken to Brooklyn Hospital in stable condition.

Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS.
