Police are looking for this man, sketched above, for allegedly shooting two Jamaica residents last month.

Authorities say that on November 27, at approximately 6:56 p.m., a 911 call was placed about two people shot at 163-72 Mathias Avenue.

Cops found an unconscious and unresponsive 58-year-old with multiple gunshot wounds to his torso. The man turned out to be Henry Wright, a state corrections officer.

Police also found a 52-year-old woman, his wife, Sharon Floyd-Wright, with a wound to her left shoulder.

Both were taken to Jamaica Hospital, where they’re in critical condition.

A preliminary investigation found that two suspects, one of which has a teardrop tattoo on his face, pushed their way into the Jamaica home before shooting both victims.

The suspects then fled, one eastbound on Mathias Avenue and the other westbound.

Police are also looking for the car they drive, a light-colored Hyundai Elantra, shown below.
