This is nuts!

A guy with seven gunshot wounds to his groin and arm drove from Sunset Park to a Park Slope hospital — and into two other cars — on June 11, police and witnesses say.

The 45-year-old was likely involved in a shooting at 53rd Street and Third Avenue, and he showed up to Methodist Hospital at 4:57 pm, officials said.

He hit two cars turning the wrong way onto Sixth Street at the hospital’s emergency-room entrance on the corner of Seventh Avenue, witnesses said.

The man is in stable condition, according to police.

There are no arrests, and the investigation is ongoing, officials said.
