A shooting early Saturday morning in Fordham near the Havana Lounge and Tapas Bar sent two people to the hospital, the NYPD says.
A 23-year-old woman was shot in the leg and a 39-year-old man was shot in the leg and wrist. They are both expected to be OK.
Police tell News 12 that an argument broke out between two people around 2 a.m. They say one of them pulled out a gun and started shooting.
A neighbor told News 12 that there's always something bad going on here. He said the noise from the club keeps him up at night, and he even heard one of the shots fired during the shooting. He says he wants the club to be shut down.
Police are looking for a man who took off in a black Mercedes. Anyone with information about the incident is urged to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
