The shooters who opened fire on a group of teens in a Queens drive-by shooting Wednesday afternoon, leaving one teenage girl critically injured, remain at large, police reported.
Law enforcement sources said the shooting happened at about 4:10 p.m. on April 27 in front of a building within the Fresh Meadows Apartments complex, at 64-50 188th St. in Fresh Meadows.
According to WABC-TV, individuals inside two sedans pulled up next to a group of 10-12 teenagers as they walked through the location. The vehicles then stopped ahead of the group, then an individual got out of one of the cars to engage the group in words.
A suspect then opened fire on the crowd, authorities said, striking a 14-year-old girl in the neck and two 18-year-old men in their legs. The suspect and vehicles then fled the scene.
Officers from the 107th Precinct responded to the incident. EMS rushed the injured girl to Long Island Jewish Medical Center, where she was listed in critical but stable condition.
The injured men were taken to NewYork-Presbyterian Queens hospital, and listed in stable condition.
No arrests have been made in the ongoing investigation, cops said.
