At least eight people were shot Saturday night in Brooklyn’s Coney Island after a gunman approached a family barbecue and opened fire in the final hours of the July 4th holiday. NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said a masked gunman dressed in all black approached the fence line of a courtyard o ff Surf Avenue around 10:30 p.m. and opened fire, striking four adults and four children. There was no argument or altercation that pre-dated the shooting, she said. The victims range in age from six to 37 years old. Seven of the people shot are expected to survive, but a 21-year-old woman shot in the chest was critically wounded, according to police. The commissioner said detectives were looking into a link between the shooting at recent gang activity in the neighborhood. “Earlier this week, we had a confirmed gang-related homicide that occurred on the same block. We are looking into whether there was a nexus between the two incidents,” Tisch said. The masked suspect fled on foot, but police did recover a gun. No arrests have been made. ...read more read less
