One man was killed and three others wounded in a daylight shooting on an Atlantic City street.

Video obtained by BreakingAC shows a male on a bike come up to the victims, who are standing together, and open fire.

As he shoots, one of the victims falls to the ground and the others run. The person on the ground eventually gets up and runs.

The shooter starts to bike away, then turns around, drops the bike and flees on foot.
