Twenty-eight-year-old Karen Pinto is recovering this evening after she was shot on Sunday night. Pinto and a family member were on Antelope Street Extension when they were approached by two gunmen who fired several shots in their direction. Pinto was shot in the leg and the men escaped. Investigators do not believe that she was the target but rather the individual she was with. C.I.B. Commander of the Eastern Division, Superintendent Alejandro Cowo, says that investigators are looking for two known suspects.
