BRONX - Cops are asking for the public’s help trying to catch a jade green draped gunman who opened fire from a stolen car across from Roberto Clemente State Park.

The NYPD released surveillance from inside a takeout joint of the suspect ordering food. She was last seen wearing a green top, green pants, black sneakers and an ID holder around her neck.
