A 19-year-old man was slain and a 31-year-old woman was injured in a shooting outside a Queens nightclub, according to police.
Two others were shot in Harlem overnight, and two males were stabbed in Midtown, according to police. The tragic Saturday morning gunshots was the latest event in the city’s nighttime mayhem.
Saturday around 4 a.m., shots were fired outside the Amadeus Nightclub on Albion Avenue near Queens Boulevard in Elmhurst, according to police.
According to police, the 19-year-old was shot in the back and shoulder, while the 31-year-old was wounded in the buttocks.
The youngster was confirmed dead at Elmhurst Hospital, while the woman was listed in stable condition, according to officials.
The gunfire occurred in the dense throng that had just exited the club. A spokeswoman for the NYPD stated, “There was a dispute inside the club that spilled outside, and shots were fired.”
Police are uncertain as to whether the victims knew each other or were involved in the altercation. The NYPD stated that they may have just been in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Police reported that the suspect, a male in his 30s wearing a light blue hooded sweatshirt, fled in a white and black SUV. There have been no arrests.
On the club’s Instagram, Amadeus touted a night of live DJ sets as the “Infamous Coldest Winter Ever.”
Earlier, a male, 30, was shot in the left knee and a woman, 36, was shot in the right knee outside Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Blvd. around 3:40 a.m., according to police.
According to officials, both victims were transported to Harlem Hospital in stable condition. The suspect, a man wearing a yellow bubble jacket, is still at large, according to authorities.
The four individuals involved in a “two-on-two fight” at West 34th Street and 7th Avenue reportedly filed “cross complaints.” The NYPD stated that all four suspects were brought into custody and the two victims were treated for non-life-threatening injuries at Harlem Hospital. The identities and charges were not revealed immediately.
