HARLEM, NY — Four people were shot on a Central Harlem street corner Tuesday evening, hours after another multiple shooting just a few blocks away, according to police.
Shots rang out just before midnight in front of an apartment building on West 116th Street between Frederick Douglass Boulevard and St. Nicholas Avenue, part of the busy "Little Senegal" strip of shops and restaurants, the NYPD announced.
The victims were all men in their twenties: a 21-year-old shot in the arm, a 24-year-old shot in the left and right leg, a 27-year-old shot in the leg, and a 28-year-old shot in the arm, police said.

The shooting happened steps from Bo's Bagels, which said in an Instagram post on Wednesday morning that it had to delay opening as police staged a crime scene.
It came just a few hours after a broad-daylight shooting on 125th Street that injured two people: a 20-year-old man and a 48-year-old woman, police said.
Police now believe the woman was an unintended target of the shooting, which stemmed from a dispute between the male victim and the unknown gunman, police said.
Both the woman and the man were shot in their legs, and were in stable condition at nearby hospitals. Nobody has been arrested, police said.
