A 13-year-old boy was shot just outside a Bronx subway station late Sunday by a crew of four attackers who made their getaway on Citi Bikes, authorities said.
The teen took a bullet to the left leg at the intersection of Westchester Avenue and Simpson Street in Longwood – near the stairs leading to the elevated Simpson Street Nos. 2 and 5 subway station, around 8:20 p.m. Sunday, cops said.
He was taken to Lincoln Medical Center, where he was listed in stable condition, authorities said.
The teen told cops he was standing or walking at the intersection when he heard gunshots, police said.
It’s unclear whether he was the intended target of the gunfire, and the motive remains under investigation.
Four male suspects – two of them also believed to be teens – fled the scene on Citi Bikes, police said.
No arrests had been made by late Monday morning.
The violence came just over a week after two boys, 12 and 13, were shot and wounded inside a Bronx McDonald’s on White Plains Road near Mace Avenue, cops said.
That shooting happened after the victims exchanged words with two girls — and nine boys arrived to back up the girls, NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said last week.
One of them opened fire, striking the older boy in the thigh and the younger victim in the left leg and back, police said.
Cops last week released surveillance footage of the masked gunman, who remains on the lam.
