A 61-year-old woman was killed Monday night after getting caught in the crossfire of a dispute on a Bronx street, police said.

The woman was walking alone by a deli on East 188th Street when gunfire erupted during a feud down the block just after 7 p.m. near East 188 Street and Creston Ave in Fordham Heights, according to cops and sources.

Three men were arguing with another man when a member of the group opened fire, sources said. The stray bullet missed the gunman’s intended target and struck the woman. 
The woman was hit in the torso and transported to St. Barnabas hospital where she was pronounced dead, police said.

The suspects fled in a vehicle on Grand Concourse, according to police sources.

No other injuries were reported.

Police said the investigation is ongoing. A description of the suspects was not immediately available and no arrests have been made.
