A woman who heard gunfire early Tuesday in Manhattan realized that she had been shot after running for safety, police say.
The 21-year-old was waiting for her boyfriend at West 28th Street and Seventh Avenue in the Flatiron District at about 2:15 a.m. when two men arguing nearby began shooting at one another.

After she was safely inside, police say she realized her leg was grazed by a bullet.
She was taken to Bellevue Hospital, where she is in stable condition.
Police say are looking for a black SUV with New York plate No. GGF-5449 in connection to the shooting.
