In the footage, the suspected shooter appears to move slowly toward West Farms Square plaza before aiming toward a cluster of people gathered near a storefront.
The video also shows one man tumbling over a bench and landing on the pavement, though it was not immediately clear whether he had been hit by gunfire.
