Following Saturday's early morning shooting that left four men injured, police have released surveillance footage of a suspect in the incident, showing the man dancing in a nearby club and then getting on what appears to be an electric bicycle.

The above footage of the shooting suspect was taken inside the Ipanema Bar before the shooting occurred, according to a police source, before the man is captured getting on a bike. Another source told the News that the man was seen arguing with some people outside the bar, on security footage that was not released.

The injury total from the shooting was also raised from three to four, with an unreported victim from yesterday, a 35-year-old man, added to the total with an injury from a graze wound to his back. The other victims from the shooting, which took place in front of the High End Deli when the suspect pulled up in front of the store on a bike and opened fire, were a 41-year-old man who was shot in the chest, a 41-year-old man shot in the groin and torso and a 42-year-old man who was also shot in the chest. All three men were treated for their injuries at Bellevue Hospital.

A police spokesperson said that the investigation is ongoing.
