NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Police on Wednesday released footage of three suspects sought in connection to the shooting death of a 16-year-old girl earlier this month in Queens.
At approximately 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, May 10, 16-year-old Claudia Quaatey was sitting in an SUV in front of the Jackie Robinson School located at 121-14 Lucas Street in St. Albans when the three suspects discharged a firearm, fatally striking the teen.
The suspects then fled the location on foot heading westbound on 122nd Avenue.
Claudia died after she "suffered a severe brain injury and was placed on life support," her aunt, Benita Bortey, said in a GoFundMe page, which aims to cover the teen's funeral, medical and other costs.
"Claudia fought for her life with her loved ones by her side, hoping and praying for a miracle," Bortey said in the fundraiser, "Claudia unfortunately succumbed to her injury."
The first suspect is described as a male with a dark complexion and a slim build, approximately 5' 11" to 6' tall. He was last seen wearing a white mask, black and gray hooded sweatshirt, gray sweatpants, and white sneakers.
The second suspect is described as a male with a light complexion and a slim build, approximately 5' 10" tall. He was last seen wearing a black mask, gray hooded sweatshirt, dark colored sweatpants, and red sneakers.
The third suspect is described as a male with a medium complexion and a medium build, approximately 5' 6" tall. He was last seen wearing a black mask, navy hooded sweatshirt, black pants, and black and white sneakers.
Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477).
