Authorities on Monday were still looking for the woman who allegedly ran over a 59-year-old bystander in a walker outside a Queens deli, killing him, after brawling with another woman, according to police.
Video from inside Rohan Deli in Far Rockaway appears to show the two women get into a shouting match around 7 a.m. Saturday. The women move outside where their fight escalates and another video angle captures fists flying on the crowded sidewalk in front of the store.
Punches are thrown and a wig is ripped off, but the violence doesn't end when the two separate.
One of the women, a 27-year-old, climbs into a black Honda Civic parked along the sidewalk and backs the car a few feet, allegedly in an effort to jump the curb and hit the other woman, NYPD officials said.

Instead, the woman slams into 59-year-old Milton Storch, who had been sitting on his walker outside the doors of the deli. He was thrown to the ground and his walker was heavily damaged.
Doctors pronounced Storch dead at St. John's Hospital, where a 37-year-old man had also been taken for minor injuries to his back.
The driver took off in the car before abandoning it and fleeing on foot, police said.

Neighbors said Storch was a steady presence in the neighborhood and looked out for others.
"He was really nice, very respectful man, and it's sad that he had to lose his life like that," one said.
