Last week 65-year-old Alla Kamenev was shot dead in broad daylight on the corner of West 2nd Street and Sea Breeze Avenue in Coney Island by an assailant who then rode away on a pink bicycle.

The motive for the murder is still unclear as the Kamenev's had been separated for a number of years, according to sources.
Finally, here is surveillance video of the suspect making his not very slick getaway below:
