Former NYPD investigator: We have to give Eric Adams a chance
Former NYPD investigator Paul Mauro argues NYC Mayor Eric Adams is trying to pull a U-turn on an aircraft carrier after 8 years of de Blasio.
A 15-year-old girl was struck in the shin by a stray bullet shortly before midnight on Tuesday evening when a shooting erupted across the street from her family's home in Queens.
The teen was transported to a local hospital and her father told reporters outside of his home on Wednesday that she was in "very good condition."
The NYPD said a few bullets hit the family's front door and one flew through the front window after one or more people started firing guns nearby around 11:06 p.m.
No arrests have been made but NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell wrote on Twitter that every "resource is being utilized to find those responsible for the shooting."
The girl left a note on the bullet-riddled front door of her family's home.
"Hey besties, girl who got shot here! I have no comment," the note read, according to the New York Post. "Come back after the Regents for a statement."
