BROOKLYN — Chilling surveillance footage released Thursday by the NYPD shows the moment a Rikers Island correction officer was shot to death in Mill Basin on Sunday night.
Alastasia Bryan, 25, was fatally shot by a hooded gunman who walked up to the driver’s side window of her 2016 Nissan Infiniti parked on East 73rd Street and Avenue L and pumped several shots into her about 9:15 p.m., the NYPD said.
Bryan, who completed correction officer training in November and was working on Rikers Island, suffered wounds to her head and torso and was pronounced dead at the scene, police and family said.
Investigators are looking for two men in connection with the murder. They say both were wearing dark-colored clothing and fled in a gold or tan four-door Hyundai Elantra.
