Detectives are looking for the suspects who shot and wounded a group of men in East Flatbush on Saturday night.
According to police sources, the bullets flew at the corner of Avenue D and Utica Avenue at about 10:19 p.m. on April 19.
Officers from the 67th Precinct, in responding to a 911 call about the gun violence, found three wounded men at the location: a 34-year-old man shot in the left ankle; a 29-year-old man who took a bullet to his right calf; and a 51-year-old man shot in the right ankle.
The older shooting victim sought treatment via private means, while EMS rushed the two other shooting victims to Kings County Hospital. All are expected to recover from their wounds.
Police recovered a firearm at the scene. While cops did not provide a description of a perpetrator or a motive for the violence, eyewitnesses told police that they spotted a large group of motorcyclists riding away soon after the shooting.
No arrests have been made, and the investigation remains ongoing.
Police are asking anyone with information regarding this shooting to call Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS (for Spanish, dial 888-57-PISTA) or submit tips online at crimestoppers.nypdonline.org, or on X (formerly Twitter) @NYPDTips.
