A mass shooting at the Taste of the City Lounge in Brooklyn resulted in three deaths and eight injuries early Sunday morning. Police officials confirmed the incident occurred around 3:30 a.m., with victims aged between 27 and 61. The shooting stemmed from a dispute within the crowded venue. Officers recovered 36 shell casings and a firearm nearby, while the NYPD actively sought multiple suspects. Despite this incident, New York City is experiencing a record low in gun violence this year.
It's a terrible thing that happened this morning and we're going to investigate to determine what went down.
I mean, we have the lowest numbers of shooting incidents and shooting victims seven months into the year that we've seen on record in the city of New York.
Something like this is, of course, thank God an anomaly and it's a terrible thing that happened this morning, but we're going to investigate and get to the bottom of what went down.
