BRONX - Cops are looking for a real cookie monster who shot up a Bronx soul food restaurant and wounded a man on a busy Saturday night. 





Police released surveillance video from the shooting in the East Tremont section of the Bronx. 


The video shows a man wearing a black t-shirt with the word “Cookies” in red and white lettering printed across the chest. The man is seen walking with, what appears to be, a semi-automatic handgun on his right side with people seen clearly behind him in the restaurant. 


At around 7:45 pm on August 5, a 30-year-old man was seated inside the seafood soul restaurant located at 563 East Tremont Avenue. The man wearing the “Cookies” shirt and holding the gun near his right hip, approached. The gunman lifted the weapon and opened fire inside the restaurant. The victim was struck one time in the left leg.

Apparently no words were exchanged between the gunman and the victim and investigators did not comment on a motive for the very visible shooting. 


The gunman calmly exited the restaurant and fled on foot. 


EMS rushed the victim to nearby Saint Barnabas Hospital where he was listed in stable condition. 


The suspect is described as a male with a medium complexion and build. He has dark hair and a small beard. He appears to have tattoos on his right arm. 




In addition to the black shirt with the word “Cookies” across it, the suspect was last seen wearing blue jeans with spots of white and white and red sneakers.


Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
