A teenage girl was killed and four others wounded after gunmen opened fire at a group sitting on a bench by a New York City beach.
The shootings by two gunmen happened during an altercation just before 5:30 p.m. on the Brighton Beach boardwalk in Brooklyn.
All of the victims were sitting on the same bench. Police are investigating the possibility the shooting was gang related.
The girl who died has not yet been identified. She was shot under the left armpit and died at Coney Island Hospital, where a 23-year-old man was in critical condition with a stomach wound.
Also wounded were a 21-year-old, a 25-year-old and a 26-year-old. They were taken to Lutheran Hospital.
