A man is dead<\/a> and a frantic manhunt is underway for the gunman after a shooting erupted in a Brooklyn apartment on Sunday morning.<\/p>\n

According to police sources, the incident unfolded at around 10:52 a.m. inside of 75 Cumberland Walk. Cops said they received a 911 call reporting that shots were fired inside of apartment 12E. Officers from the 88th Precinct<\/a> and Police Service Area 4<\/a> rushed to the scene to discover a 43-year-old lying on the ground suffering from gunshot wounds to the chest and arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n

EMS rushed the victim to Methodist Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. His identity is being withheld pending proper family notification.

Cops flooded the area, including NYPD\u2019s Emergency Service Unit (ESU), who geared up with long guns, shields, and even a K9 dog and entered the building in search of the suspect. For about 30 minutes, the dog\u2019s barks could be heard echoing outside of the building.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis looks like a movie,\u201d one local resident said, watching the specialized officers enter the building.
