NEW YORK — Ten people were injured in a shooting outside a nightclub in Queens, N.Y., on Wednesday night, according to the New York Police Department.
About 15 people were standing outside Amazura nightclub at 11:15 p.m. in Jamaica when four men on foot approached the group of 16 to 20-year-olds who were waiting to get into a private event. Three to four men opened fire on the group, Chief of Patrol Philip Rivera, said during an early Thursday press conference.
About 30 shots were fired before the gunmen fled on foot. They were then seen getting into a light-colored Sedan with out-of-state plates.
There is “zero tolerance for these senseless shootings,” Rivera said.
Six women and four men were taken to area hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries, he said. All the victims were expected to survive.
A massive police presence and several ambulances could be seen outside Amazura in footage posted on social media.
The motive was not immediately known but Rivera said, “This is not terrorism.”
