The woman who was fatally shot with her dog inside a Brooklyn smoke shop may not have been the intended target, officials said.
Jennifer Ynoa, 36, was inside the Salim Smoke Shop on DeKalb Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant with her pit bull around 9:45 p.m. when the suspect got out of a red car, crossed the street, walked inside, and opened fire – striking Ynoa and her pup, before “calmly” walking back to his ride, police said.
“He then gets in the car and drives away,” a police official told The Post. “The dog comes running out and collapses on the ground and then the lady comes out and collapses on the ground. 911 calls start coming in about shots fired.”
Ynoa, who lived about two blocks from the store near Franklin Avenue, was taken to the Brooklyn Hospital Center, where she was pronounced dead.
