A night out at a Brooklyn music venue ended in gunfire that left two men wounded, and police are now turning to the public for help, News 12 reported. Investigators are working to track down those responsible for the early-morning shooting.
The violence broke out in the early morning hours. According to investigators, the shooting erupted outside the Brooklyn Monarch just before 3 a.m. on Friday, following a confrontation at the venue.
Both of the men who were hit suffered multiple gunshot wounds. Police say one of the victims, who is 33 years old, was shot in the left thigh, while the other man was also struck in the same burst of gunfire.
Despite the number of wounds, the two are expected to pull through. Authorities say both men are still recovering and are listed in stable condition.
The scene scattered quickly once the shots were fired. Police say one person took off running immediately after the shooting, fleeing the area outside the venue.
The full picture of what happened is still coming together. Investigators say they are working to determine who else might have been involved in the confrontation and the gunfire that followed.
For now, the focus is on tracking down the person behind the shooting. Police say they have identified a suspect wanted in connection with the crime and have released a photo, asking anyone with information to come forward.
