NEW YORK — One person was killed and three others injured by a gunman firing a semi-automatic pistol from a scooter in an apparently random shooting spree in New York City, police said.
A suspect was apprehended two hours after the first victim was shot, according to the New York City Police Department.
Killed in the rampage was 86-year-old Hamoo Saeidi of Queens, according to police. The names of the four people wounded in the incident were not released. "The perpetrator was described as a male on a scooter firing at a nail salon on Jamaica Avenue," Kenny told reporters during a briefing."Numerous witnesses described the male on a scooter randomly firing at a group of people that were standing on the corner of 108th Street and Jamaica Avenue," Kenny said.
A motive for the shooting remains under investigation, but Kenny said the incident appears to be a random act of violence.
