NYPD 4 teens shot and wounded on Brooklyn basketball court


Four teens were shot and wounded — including a 13-year-old girl — when a gunman riding a bicycle sprayed bullets onto a basketball court in Brooklyn Monday night, police said.

The girl was grazed in the back, as was an 18-year-old male. The sudden spurt of gunfire at the Fish Playground in Brownsville about 6:30 p.m. also wounded two 16-year-old boys — one grazed in the right arm, the other with a round that penetrated his left arm, police said.

Police say the suspect is also a teen. He fled on the bicycle after terrorizing the playground on Fulton St. near Thomas S. Boyland St. He was still at large Monday night, and police had not revealed a motive.

The wounded girl was taken to Interfaith Hospital, while the others were taken to Brookdale University Hospital for treatment, police said. None of the injuries were considered life-threatening.
