A gunman all black can be seen pointing his gun into the Bousso African Hair Salon at 63 Victory Blvd. before shooting several rounds through the store’s front window. Police said one of his bullets hit a 17-year-old girl in the head and another hit a 35-year-old woman in the buttocks.
Customers and hair stylists either ducked to the ground or fled toward the back of the building as the bullets started flying. As the suspect was still shooting, another person he was with was seen running away from the salon, and they both ran in the same direction.
The gunman remains at large as of Thursday.
