Baskerville allegedly opened fire from a black sedan in front of 2920 Surf Ave. that afternoon, grazing the young victim as she stood outside a deli with her mother.

The young girl suffered a wound to her abdomen and was treated at NYU Langone Hospital Brooklyn.

The child did not appear to be the gunman’s intended target, police said at the time.
