FORT GREENE — Police are looking for a man who fired a gun into the air, sending bullets through a nearby apartment window.

The man, who was near the corner of South Portland Avenue and Fulton Street, fired the gun several times at about 3:15 a.m. on June 21, police said.

A video of the incident shows the suspect raising his hand in the air, though it is unclear whether that is when he fired the shots.

The apartment's residents were not home at the time of the shooting but returned to find bullet holes in their window, police said.

The suspect was wearing dark pants, red shoes, a white T-shirt, blue jacket and a baseball cap, police said.

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