Police are searching for the gunman behind a Queens party shooting on Saturday night that left a man dead and three attendees injured, it was reported.
Law enforcement sources said the shooting occurred during the bash inside an auto repair shop at 129-09 89th Ave. in Richmond Hill at about 9:39 p.m. on July 2.
Citing police sources, WABC-TV reported, it’s believed that a single gunman walked into the party, pulled out a gun and began firing on patrons. He then took off in an unknown direction.
Officers from the 102nd Precinct, in responding to a 911 call about shots fired at the location, found four wounded victims at the location.
Among the injured were a 24-year-old man, who suffered a gunshot wound to his head. EMS rushed him to Jamaica Hospital, where he died a short time later; police have withheld his identity, pending family notification.
The other victims included an 18-year-old woman who suffered a graze wound to her head, but refused medical attention; a 17-year-old girl grazed in the torso, who also refused medical attention at the scene; and a 25-year-old man shot in the right leg, who was brought to Jamaica Hospital in stable condition.
So far, no arrests have been made in the ongoing investigation, police said.
