(New York, NY) — NYPD cops are searching for the gunman who shot a 16-year-old near a playground in the Bronx Thursday afternoon. The bullets flew in Mott Haven around 4:30 p.m.
Police say two gunmen shot the teen in the buttocks and then took off. The teen is expected to recover. The shooting comes amid a violent week for city schools. A student was shot outside an Upper West Side high school earlier in the week.
