Teens shot on Williamsburg street

A pair of gunmen shot two teenagers in the legs on a Williamsburg street on Wednesday night.

The shots rang out on S. Ninth Street between Berry and Bedford avenues at 10:50 pm. The gunmen shot an 18-year-old man in the right thigh and right ankle, and they shot a 17-year-old boy in the left foot twice.

The two shooters, one of whom was wearing a white T-shirt and khaki pants, ran eastbound down S. Ninth Street. The shooting victims were taken by ambulance to Bellevue Hospital, where they are both listed in stable condition.
