Queens mass shooting leaves 10 teens wounded outside NYC event space, police say

Summary

A mass shooting outside the Amazura Concert Hall in Jamaica, Queens, left 10 teenagers, aged 16 to 19, injured on New Year’s Day.

Four male suspects fired about 30 rounds into a crowd of 15 people waiting outside a vigil for a 16-year-old victim of a prior shooting.

All victims sustained non-life-threatening injuries and are expected to recover.

Police are searching for the suspects, who fled in a light-colored sedan. Queens officials condemned the violence, and the public is urged to assist with the investigation.
