WATCH: Suspect's Gun Jams as He 'Attempted to Shoot a Female Victim'

The New York Police Department has released video of a suspect whose gun jammed as he “attempted to shoot a female victim.”

The video, released July 22, shows the suspect allegedly walk up to the female, who was sitting on a porch, and try to shoot, only to pull the pistol back down and grapple with the slide.

He then allegedly tried to shoot again but with the same outcome, the gun jammed.

After a few seconds of frustration the suspect fled.

NYPD is seeking the suspect for “menacing” the woman and is asking for anyone with information to contact 800-577-TIPS.
