Search On For 2 Men In Connection With Correction Officer's Murder
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- Police are hoping new surveillance video will help them identify two men in connection with the murder of a city correction officer in Brooklyn.
The NYPD released the video on Thursday that they say shows the final harrowing moments of 25-year-old Alastasia Bryan's life.
In the video, a man can be seen walking up to Bryan's car Sunday night near her home on East 73rd Street and Avenue L. Investigators say he then fires off five shots, killing Bryan who was sitting in the driver's seat.
Bryan, who had been on her way to work at the time of her killing, had only been on the job for a month on Rikers Island.
Police are now trying to find a vehicle and two men who were seen in the area around the time of the murder. The men were seen wearing dark colored clothing and the vehicle was described as a gold or tan colored four-door Hyundai Elantra.
