Kaori Patterson-Moore, a 7-month-old girl, was shot and killed Wednesday afternoon in East Williamsburg when a gunman on a moped opened fire at a street corner on Humboldt and Moore Streets. Kaori was in a stroller with her mother; her father rushed her to Woodhull Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. The shooting is believed to be gang-related — Kaori an unintended victim. Mayor Mamdani and Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch responded to the scene. “A life that had barely begun was taken in an instant,” Mamdani said. Donate to the GoFundMe campaign for her mother here.
