The victim sustained a gunshot wound to the neck and shoulder, and was rushed to Harlem Hospital in critical but stable condition. However, the identity of the victim remains pending family notification.
The shooting took place behind a store at 134-29 Guy R Brewer Blvd. in Rochdale, and no description of a suspect was provided. The 113th Precinct responded to the scene, but no connection has been made between this shooting and any other incidents in Manhattan, the Bronx, or other parts of Queens.
