Wild video captured the terrifying moment a masked gunman opened fire on a Bronx street Tuesday — striking a man multiple times and grazing a woman in a reckless, broad daylight shooting, according to authorities and sources.

Harrowing surveillance footage obtained by The Post shows a gunman in a ski mask and head-to-toe black clothing bolting across a Belmont street with his gun drawn before shooting off several rounds just before 6 p.m.

He struck a 36-year-old man and grazed a 35-year-old woman in the hail of bullets on Webster Avenue between East 186th Street and East 187th Street, according to cops.

The shooter then continued to fire bullets as he turned to run away from the scene, causing frenzied bystanders on the block to duck and scurry into their apartments, the clip showed.

He ran eastbound on 187th Street after the shooting, according to sources.

The 36-year-old man was shot twice in his right leg, once in his right hip, and once in his right ankle. The 35-year-old woman was also grazed by a bullet on her left leg, sources said.

EMS rushed both victims to St. Barnabas Hospital in stable condition, authorities added.

Eleven shell casings were recovered on scene, sources said.

The shooter has been described as a male in a black hoodie, but police have not yet made any arrests or determined a motive.

It is not yet clear if the victims knew the shooter, police said.

The incident remains under investigation.
