Three people were killed and nine others wounded when up to four gunmen opened fire in a possible gang-related shooting at a Brooklyn hookah lounge around closing time early Sunday, authorities said.
The club was packed when the bullets flew, and detectives later recovered 42 shell casings from multiple .9mm and .45-caliber weapons.
Tisch said a gun was found nearby around Bedford Avenue and Eastern Parkway, and we are investigating whether this is connected to the shooting.
NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch stated the incident was a tragic, senseless act of violence with both innocent victims present and a dispute that led to the shooting.
