From the New York Post: At least 10 people, mainly teenagers, were injured in a mass shooting outside a nightclub in Queens on Wednesday night, according to sources and the NYPD.
A group of four men fired at least 30 gunshots into a crowd that gathered near the Amazura nightclub in Jamaica just before 11:20 p.m. after a private event at the location, according to cops and the sources.
Six females and four males, ranging in age from 16 to 20, were struck by bullets, NYPD officials said at a Thursday morning press conference.
The group of people were reportedly in line to attend an event at the club that was in honor of a known gang member in the community slain last October, whose birthday coincided with New Year’s Day.
Police stressed that the shooting was “not a terrorist attack.”
The victims were all transported to local hospitals for treatment, although police said all are expected to survive and none are in critical condition.
Police are still searching for the gunmen, and are on the lookout for a light-colored gray Infiniti sedan with out-of-state license plates.
