NEWARK — A disturbing video shows a man firing a barrage of bullets from an assault weapon in a shooting that wounded two people in the city's North Ward last week.

According to police reports, the man opened fire in front of Jersey Fried Chicken on Bloomfield Avenue around 8:50 p.m. before fleeing on foot.

Bystanders can be seen attempting to avoid the hail of bullets on the video tape, which appears to have been taken from a surveillance camera across the street.

A 20-year-old man was shot multiple times in his chest, thigh and hand during the incident, according to police. A woman was also shot in the shoulder as she waited to cross an intersection nearly two blocks away.

Both were taken to University Hospital and survived their injuries.

Police recovered 29 .223-caliber shell casings at the scene, but have not made any arrests related to the incident.
