Three down, one to go.
Cops have named Brendrick (Diddy) Brown, 23, as the triggerman in the mistaken-identity murder of a Bronx woman and are hunting for him, officials said Tuesday.
His two alleged accomplices have already been busted.
Cops say Brown jumped out of a car and shot and killed 33-year-old Dune Janelle Jacobs just a half-block from her home on E. 213th St. and Holland Ave. in Williamsbridge on Dec. 2, officials said.
Investigators believe Brown, a member of the Young Guns street crew, mistook Jacobs for a 23-year-old man who is a member of the Bloods-affiliated Brothers for Another crew.
Jacobs was in the middle of packing for her move to Brooklyn so she could be closer to her job at Buffalo Wild Wings in the Atlantic Center mall, family members said. She had just been promoted, her niece said.
Cops heard the shots that hit Jacobs in the foot and head at 12:45 a.m., officials said.
As they raced over, they saw a car speeding away.
The vehicle, a rental car that had not been returned, was found abandoned a short distance away.
Jacobs was rushed to Jacobi Medical Center, but doctors couldn’t save her. She died at 2:15 a.m., officials said
Over the next few weeks, cops charged two men, Fabian Coke, 22, and Devon Jenkins, 23, with Jacobs’ murder.
A third unidentified man was also apprehended, but it was not immediately clear what he was charged with, officials said.
Cops are asking anyone with information regarding Brown’s whereabouts to come forward.
Calls can be made to the NYPD Crime Stoppers hotline at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.
