#Disturbing video shows moment two men are fatally shot in the Bronx

Disturbing footage released by the NYPD shows the moment two men were murdered and another wounded during a wild, close range shootout in a Bronx apartment building.

The surveillance video — recorded Sunday evening inside the building on East 171st Street near College Avenue in Claremont and tweeted by Chief of Detectives Rodney Harrison — shows three men peeking down a staircase and then making a beeline for an apartment.

Two gunmen suddenly emerge, one from the staircase and the other from down the hallway, the footage shows.

One suspect appears to fire his weapon once before disappearing down the staircase, while the other pops off several shots.

The clip cuts out as two of the victims struggle on the ground while the third man desperately tries to open the door.

Cops say a 22-year-old man who was shot multiple times and a 27-year-old man who took a bullet to the neck were pronounced dead at BronxCare Health System.

The other victim, a 29-year-old, was shot in the arm. He was taken to Lincoln Hospital in stable condition.

The shooting came amid a tremendous spike of gun violence in the city.

Between Monday, June 29, and Sunday, July 5, the city saw 74 shooting incidents with 101 victims, the sources said. That’s compared to 26 shootings with 33 victims during that time last year.

Meanwhile, 18 people were murdered in the city last week — six more than during the same period last year.
