Five people were hospitalized, and are expected to survive, after two separate shootings within the Bronx early Friday evening, according to the NYPD.
Police officials say a man and woman were shot inside a home on Barnes Avenue in Williamsbridge following a reported dispute. The woman, 39, was shot in the chest and the man, 40, suffered a gunshot wound to his shoulder.
The suspect fled the scene but no official description was provided.
A few hours earlier, police say two men and a woman were sitting inside of a car when another vehicle pulled up and someone opened fire. The victims range in age between 20 and 23.
Investigators say the gunman was inside a white Nissan sedan when it pulled up near the victims' car around 7:30 p.m. near Tiffany Street and 163rd in South Bronx. Police say it's unclear whether the groups knew each other.
All of the victims in both shootings are expected to survive.
