BLOODY STREETS: In 2021 NYC Gun Toll Tops 2020, As 5 Were Shot In NYC On Christmas Eve

DAILY NEWS: Five men wounded, one critically, in two separate Christmas Eve shootings

Five men were hospitalized, one with critical injuries, after they were hit by gunfire in two separate Brooklyn shootings on Christmas Eve, police said Saturday.

Bullets flew about 11:50 p.m. on Friday when a gunman opened fire on four men outside a deli near the corner of Nostrand Ave. and Sterling St. in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, cops said.

When police arrived at the scene, a 50-year-old man had been shot in the buttocks and a 41-year-old man had been hit in the thigh. EMS took both victims to Kings County Hospital.

A short time later, two other men wounded in the shooting — a 39-year-old who had been shot in the back and a 42-year-old man who had been shot in the foot — hobbled into Kings County Hospital looking for medical care.

The man shot in the back was listed in critical condition, cops said. The other three had minor injuries.

The victims confirmed that they were at the scene of the shooting, but wouldn’t elaborate on what happened, a police source with knowledge of the case said.
