NEW ROCHELLE, NY — Investigators are asking for the public's help identifying a shooter involved in gun violence near a municipal housing authority apartment campus on Main Street.

On Friday, around 10:42 p.m., the New Rochelle Police Department received a report of a man shot in the arm in the 300 block of Main Street. The caller said the victim may have fled into a residence at the nearby Bracy Apartments.

While officers searched the area for the victim, Montefiore New Rochelle Hospital notified police of a gunshot wound victim who had walked into their emergency room. The victim, a 21- year-old New Rochelle resident, had a single gunshot wound that went through both his left and right forearms.

Detectives have been assigned to the case, and both the vehicle and blood-related crime scenes have been processed for evidence, according to police officials.

The victim was treated for his injuries and released from Montefiore New Rochelle Hospital.
