A woman was grazed by a bullet on a Brooklyn street Monday — marking at least the third innocent bystander to be shot in the borough in less than 48 hours.
The 52-year-old woman was walking near the Glenwood Houses NYCHA complex in Flatlands when she was grazed by a bullet in the left arm around 1:10 p.m., police said.
Three male suspects fled the scene on scooters after the gunfire, according to sources.
First responders arrived at the scene on Ralph Avenue and transported the victim to Brookdale Medical Center in stable condition.
Police confirmed to The Post that she was an innocent bystander.
Year-to-date NYPD data shows shooting incidents in the 63rd precinct — which contains the crime scene — have plunged 60% compared to the same period in 2025.
However, Monday’s shooting follows the tragic death of Sofronie Hartzog, a mother of five who bled out in a Crown Heights bar bathroom after she was hit by a stray bullet during a street brawl over the weekend.
The deadly gunfire erupted when a fight broke out between a group of about 100 people outside the Ooh La La Lounge near Bergen Street and Howard Avenue around 2:23 a.m. Sunday, according to the NYPD.
An errant bullet struck Hartzog in the back and a 34-year-old man in the gut — both unintended targets, police said.
Hartzog ran into the bar, where she collapsed in a restroom.
First responders rushed her to Brookdale Medical Center, but she died from her injuries.
“They killed her, that’s what happened,” her grieving aunt, Melinda Hartzog, told The Post.
“She was the best person in the world,” she said, adding that her niece left behind five children.
Neighbor Jennifer Ortiz described the slain victim as a doting mom, always putting her well-behaved kids in nice outfits.
