    NEW YORK (1010 WINS/WCBS 880) -- The NYPD released video Tuesday of a suspect connected to a triple shooting near a Brooklyn migrant shelter Sunday night that left two men dead and a third man in critical condition.

    The new video shows the male suspect walking down a sidewalk around the time of Sunday night's shootings in Clinton Hill.

    The NYPD responded around 10:45 p.m. Sunday to multiple 911 calls about multiple shootings victims at both the shelter and a nearby park between the Brooklyn Navy Yard and the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway.

    Responding officers found a 30-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the chest inside Steuben Park at Steuben Street and Flushing Avenue.

    Just a couple blocks away from the park, outside the shelter at 29 Ryerson St., officers found two more injured men: a 21-year-old man with multiple gunshot wounds to the body and a 59-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the head.

    The 30-year-old man from the park was transported to New York-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. He was identified as Arturo Jose Rodriguez-Marcano, who has no address on file, according to police.

    The 21-year-old man was taken to NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue, where he also died. He was identified as Enny DeJesus Urbina Mendez, a resident of the shelter on Ryerson Street.

    The 59-year-old man was rushed to New York-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, where he remained in critical condition Tuesday.

    Police said the shooter fled on a dark-colored moped northbound on Ryerson Street.

    It wasn't immediately clear who among the victims may have been targeted in the shooting or if any of the victims were bystanders.

    The NYPD is investigating if the shooting was gang related. Sources told the New York Post that it may be linked to a Venezuelan gang that has established a foothold in New York City.

    Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
