This is the moment a female assassin casually walks up to a mum on a crowded New York street and shoots her in the head.
The execution-style killing happened late on Wednesday, August 4, in front of multiple witnesses – before the shooter calmly walks back to her car to escape.
Police have released video of the murder in an effort to track down the woman – described by the victim’s relatives as a ‘family friend’.
She shot Delia Johnson, 42, at point blank range in the head, before firing at her body on the ground.
Delia was talking to a group of people on the corner of Franklin Avenue and Prospect Place in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, at around 9.40pm.
Referring to the alleged killer, Delia’s mother, Delia Berry said: ‘I know her’, The New York Post reported.
‘Oh my God, oh my God, she used to stay with us. She slept in my bed, ate my food.’

The family said the younger Delia leaves behind a 17-year-old daughter.
In a statement on an online fundraising page, they said: ‘Delia was a loving mother, daughter, sister, aunt, friend and up-and-coming entrepreneur. Our loss is immense.’
The New York Police department said she died at a nearby hospital.
Footage shows a blonde woman dressed all in black walk up behind her and shoot her in the back of the head.
She is described as a dark-skinned adult female, approximately in her mid-20s, of heavy build and with long blonde hair.
The shooter then returns to a parked white four-by-four with its hazards on and drives off.
Family members of the victim say she and her killer had attended a funeral in the neighbourhood earlier that day.
The USA has a long history of gun violence and controversial gun laws.
