NYPD responded to the report of a shooting on May 16th at 995 Westchester Avenue at approximately 5:00pm

Kyhara Tay, 11, was located by emergency crews suffering from a gunshot wound to the abdomen. Kyhara ran into a nail salon for help and passed out. Paramedics rushed her to Lincoln Hospital, where she died of her injuries late Monday night.

Police said surveillance footage shows a man running down a sidewalk while being chased by two people on a scooter. The scooter passenger fired several shots toward the man, and one stray bullet traveled half a block and struck Kyhara.

A gofundme campaign has been created to give Kyhara Tay a  help memorial and support her family.
