UPPER WEST SIDE, NY - A second man is being sought by police after an Upper West Side shooting saw a man take a bullet in the backside last month, authorities said.

The gunmen squeezed off several shots, striking the 41-year-old victim in the buttocks and shoulder, near Amsterdam Avenue and West 89th Street on Sept. 19 about about 1:30 a.m., Patch previously reported.
