January 2nd 2025.
Last night in New York, a terrifying and chaotic scene unfolded at a popular nightclub. It was reported that at least 10 people were injured in a shooting outside of Amazura nightclub in Jamaica, Queens. The incident occurred just before 11:20pm, when four men unleashed a hail of gunfire in the direction of a crowd. According to the New York Post, approximately 30 shots were fired, causing panic and chaos among the attendees.
The nightclub was hosting a private event at the time, with around 90 people in attendance. As the attackers fled the scene on foot, they were described as heading west along 91st Street to 143rd Place. They then got into a light-colored sedan with out-of-state plates. It was a terrifying and brazen act, leaving six men and four women injured in its wake. Thankfully, none of the injuries were believed to be life-threatening.
During a press conference this morning, police revealed that the victims were between the ages of 16 and 20. The extent of their injuries is not yet known, but authorities are working diligently to gather more information about the incident. Despite the shooting occurring on the same day as a tragic event in New Orleans, where a man drove a truck into a crowd and killed 15 people, police have stated that they do not believe this was a terrorist attack. However, they are investigating the possibility that it may be gang-related.
In a statement, Police Chief Philip Rivera expressed his outrage and determination to bring those responsible to justice. He stated, "There is zero tolerance for these senseless shootings, these horrible acts of violence on our streets, and those responsible for this crime will be apprehended and brought to justice." He also urged the public to come forward with any information that may assist in the investigation, saying, "The public has been very instrumental in recent weeks to help us catch dangerous individuals like these four men, and we ask the public - if you see something, say something."
The community is shaken by this senseless act of violence, but the resilience and determination of the police force give hope that justice will be served. As the investigation continues, authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward and assist in bringing closure to this disturbing event.
