A 1-year-old boy died on Sunday night after being shot in the head on a Brooklyn street, the police said.

The shooting occurred on the corner of Livonia Avenue and Bristol Street in the Marcus Garvey Village project in Brownsville about 7 p.m. The boy, Antiq Hennis, was hit in the left side of the head and pronounced dead at Brookdale University Hospital and Medical Center.

According to the police, Antiq was with his parents and in a stroller when he was shot as the family crossed Livonia Avenue. It was not clear who was the target of the gunman, the police said.

Antiq lived on Riverdale Avenue, a few blocks from where he was killed.

Gina Gamboa, 22, who had been visiting her boyfriend, said she heard three gunshots, and saw one man running away and another standing near a stroller.
