Update: Man Arrested In Saturday Night Shooting Near Parade Ground
A spokesman for the FDNY says two men sustained serious injuries this past Saturday night, September 7, near the Prospect Park Parade Ground. Ambulances responded to a 9:24pm call at Argyle Road and Caton Avenue, and transported the men–one of whom was shot, and one of whom had a hand injury–to Kings County Hospital.
The 70th Precinct adds the shooting was the result of a fight between the two men, both in their 20s, and police nearby had the suspect in custody immediately. The man shot sustained non life-threatening injuries to the stomach.
The 70th also says a woman running from the shooting was hit by a car and sustained injuries to her knee. She was also taken to Kings County Hospital with non life-threatening injuries. It is unclear whether she was involved in the shooting.
