"Greene hobbled into court on wooden crutches and kept his head down for much of the brief proceeding. Police said Rodriguez and Greene fled the scene on the moped and crashed into an oncoming car a few blocks away, leaving Greene with leg injuries."
"Assistant District Attorney Christopher Mirabella said in court that Greene gave EMTs a fake name in the ambulance after he and Rodriguez collided with another car as they fled the shooting."
"Brooklyn DA Eric Gonzalez said the infant was not the intended target but declined to say whether the shooting was gang-motivated. 'The motive is pretty clear,' he said. 'They were looking to shoot at a person. They missed and hit the baby in her stroller, and also injured her brother.'"
Amuri Greene, 21, pleaded not guilty to murder charges for the shooting of 7-month-old Kaori Patterson-Moore in Brooklyn. The incident occurred while the baby was in a stroller with her family. Greene allegedly fired from a moped driven by Mathew Rodriguez, who also faces charges. After the shooting, they fled but crashed into another vehicle. Prosecutors stated the baby was not the intended target, and both men are charged with multiple counts of murder and attempted murder.
