A Brooklyn mother who was shot dead at point-blank range on Wednesday reportedly knew her assassin as a 'family friend,' and was lured to her
death by a phone call, her family has claimed.

Delia Johnson, 42, was talking to a group of people in Crown Heights at
around 9.40pm on August 4 when a blonde woman dressed in all black walked
up to her from behind and shot her in the back of the head.

Surveillance video that was released by the police on Thursday shows the gunwoman fire several more times, hitting Johnson in the leg as bystanders
run and duck for cover.

The victim collapses to the ground in front of horrified onlookers as her killer calmly makes her way toward a parked white car, gets in the
driver's seat and takes off from the scene.

On Friday, police also released closer images of the suspect, as Johnson's family said they recognize the killer as a family friend.

Police have not named a suspect in the case, or arrested anyone. A motive
is still unknown.

'I know her,' Delia's mother, Delia Berry, reportedly exclaimed when she
saw the picture, according to the New York Post.

'Oh my God, oh my God, she used to stay with us,' Berry said. 'She slept
in my bed, ate my food.'

'She was one of my babies too,' Berry also told PIX 11 news.

One of Johnson's younger sisters, Hadjah Pendley, called the suspect 'a
family friend who came to our family events, celebrations, holidays -
whatever you want to call it, she came.'

Berry reportedly noted to PIX 11 that the suspect and Johnson had a
tumultuous friendship in recent weeks in which they would 'argue about everything.'

She now says she wants to know why the suspect, who has not yet been
named, would murder her daughter.

'Why did you slaughter her like that?' she asked. 'I just want to know
why.

'What could she have done to you that you couldn't come and knock on my
door and tell me? I would have straightened it out for both of you all.

'You are hurting families,' Berry told the Post. 'I'm in so much pain, I
don't know what to do.

'She was my baby,' Berry said, adding: 'This person that shot my daughter,
may God have mercy on your family, because we put curses on ourselves when
we do things.'

Mathis Johnson, Delia's brother, told the New York Daily News that his
sister had attended a funeral for an old friend earlier that day.

The service drew hundreds of mourners, and Mathis claims the suspected
killer was among them.

Mathis said he saw the black-clad woman with long blonde hair at the Sealy Culyer Funeral Home, about four blocks away.

Johnson was reportedly talking to some friends afterwards when she
received a phone call.

'She said "I'll be right back,"' longtime friend Shawn Johnson, 43, told
the New York Post. 'Twenty minutes later, somebody called me and told me
she got shot. I told him he was lying. I was just standing here with her.'

Another of Johnson's sister, Khadyah Berry, 28, told the Post she was
looking for a parking space when she saw an ambulance passing that night,
not realizing it was for her sister.

'I ran down the street trying to get to her, but by the time I got to her,
they took her,' Khadyah recounted, claiming she 'knew in my heart that
somebody called her and knew what it was and set my sister up. Nobody can
tell me otherwise.

'My sister didn't deserve that all,' she said.

Delia's family members said she was an entrepreneur who was raising her 17-year-old. Her mother also described her as her first-born child who
excelled in piano and tap dancing, and later took care of her as she
became ill.

'I will never forget when I was in so much pain and she was right there
for me,' Berry recalled to the Post about a surgery she underwent, and how Johnson was the first one at the hospital to help her.

'I am going to miss her bringing me some food when I wasn't feeling well,'
she said, adding: 'When a child can wash and clean their own mother,
that's love.

'She'd say "You know you get [on] my nerves sometimes, Mommy, but you know
I love you,"' Berry told the Post. 'I'd say, "You get on my nerves too,
but I love you too.'

This is not the only instance of a woman being implicated in a deadly
shooting targeting another woman in New York City.

Back in April, 51-year-old Nichelle Thomas was fatally shot in the back of
the head from a point-blank range as she approached a bodega in the Park
Slope section of Brooklyn.

Police later arrested Thomas' on-again, off-again girlfriend, 38-year-old Latisha Bell, charging her with second-degree murder.

Wednesday's violent killing took place as Mayor Bill de Blasio proudly
boasted on Thursday that his 'Safe Summer' program has driven down murder
and gun attacks in New York City.

In April, de Blasio unveiled his 'Safe Summer' program, a plan aimed at
ending gun violence that focused on creating disincentives for young
people looking to turn to guns by offering them positive alternatives.


During his Thursday briefing, de Blasio proudly proclaimed that the
program has been effective and said in the month of July the NYPD saw 'extraordinary successes' to curve violent crime.

Listing statistics from July, de Blasio noted that murders decreased by
49.1 percent and shootings were down by 35 percent across the New York
City.

The NYPD made 383 gun arrests in July alone, up 133.5 percent compared to
last July, the mayor said, while gun arrests in general have gone up 44.5 percent in 2021.

While de Blasio touted the success of his program he failed to mention an ongoing string of violent incidents in the streets of the Big Apple this
summer that have led to the NYPD issuing hundreds of pleas to identify suspects.

According to the mayor, the summer month of July is usually one of the
most violent in the city but the NYPD 'rose to the challenge' and was able
to suppress gun violence and executed an impressive number of gang
takedowns.

'The gang takedowns mean taking a lot of bad guys off of the streets and
at the same time a lot of shooters off the streets, this is crucial,' de
Blasio noted.

Overall since the safe summer program was launched in May, murders have
gone down 26 percent, shootings decreased 10 percent and shooting victims
are down 11 percent.

'There is more to do, but the NYPD is moving and making an impact,' de
Blasio said.

While de Blasio took his victory lap many New Yorkers are wondering if the program is actually working as the city is inundated with violent crime.

On Tuesday a man strangled a woman unconscious on a Manhattan subway train
and attempted to rape her before taking off.

According to the NYPD, the 40-year-old female subway rider was approached
by a stranger who demanded her possessions and then slammed her into the
train car seats.

The burly perpetrator then strangled the victim until she lost
consciousness.

Police said the assailant then groped the unresponsive woman's breasts
inside her bra and tried to rape her, reported the New York Post.

When the train pulled into the 168th Street station, the attacker dragged
the woman onto the subway platform and ran away.

This comes one day after police released surveillance footage of a masked attacker they say raped a 70-year-old woman at gunpoint in her apartment building in The Bronx last week.

According to the NYPD, the sexual assault took place at around 2am on July
27 in the Belmont neighborhood.

The elderly victim was entering her apartment building when she was
approached from behind by a man wearing two plastic masks - a red one and
a black one - on his face, police said.

On Saturday, three innocent bystanders were struck when gunfire erupted
outside a Washington Heights bodega.

Surveillance footage showed three men chasing a fourth man into a bodega
as he goes behind the counter and holds a gun to the three men with his
back to the cashier.

Shortly after the group of men took the standoff outside and began firing, striking a 42-year-old woman in the left arm, a 58-year-old woman in the buttocks and a 78-year-old man in the left arm and stomach, the New York
Post reported.

Earlier this week, surveillance footage captured the moment two men
approached a crowd in a busy Queens neighborhood and fired about 40 shots, injuring 10 people before fleeing the scene on mopeds.

The shooters were targeting members of the Trinitarios gang on Saturday
night in the borough's Corona neighborhood, police said.

They opened fire while some bystanders were walking outside a barbershop
and others were at a nearby restaurant for a birthday party.

These incident are reflective of the overall skyrocketing crime rates in
New York City.

NYPD crime data show that rapes are up 3.1 per cent so far this year, with
842 reported as of August 1, compared to 817 in the same period of 2020.

Other sex crimes are up 26.3 per cent to 2,719 this year, compared to
2,152 last year, according to NYPD statistics.

Shootings have spiked 15.8 per cent in 2021 compared to last year, with
900 shooting incidents in 2021 compared to 777 in 2020.

There are also 12 per cent more shooting victims this year, the data
shows, with 1,057 people falling prey to gun violence compared to 944 last year.

The biggest leap in crime rates is for hate crimes, which have surged by
103 per cent in the last year. The data come amid numerous random attacks
on Asian Americans in the city in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
