Seven people were shot dead in New York over Memorial Day weekend

Seven people were shot dead in separate incidents in New York City Sunday morning, two of them fatally, police said.

The fatal shootings both took place in Brooklyn, the first at around 12:22 a.m. when a 45-year-old man, identified as Donovan Davy, was shot in the neck and right leg on East 35th Street and Church Avenue. He was taken to Kings County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, according to police.

Several hours later, at 10:40 a.m., another man died after being hit by gunfire at 301 Sutter Avenue at the Langston Hughes Apartments in Brownsville, police officers said. Further details were not initially available.

There were no immediate arrests in either murder.

Minutes before midnight Sunday, a man was shot in the buttocks during an argument on 171st Street and Liberty Avenue in Queens. He was taken to Jamaica Hospital in stable condition.

Around 2:44 a.m., bullets began flying again on Throop Ave and Bartlett Street in Brooklyn, where a man was shot in the right leg, abdomen and buttocks, police officers said. He was taken to King’s County Hospital in stable condition. The shooter fled the scene of the crime.

Then, around 4:30 a.m., three people were hit by gunfire outside of 252 Dumont Avenue, also in Brooklyn, police officers said.

A 45-year-old woman was grazed on her right calf, a 16-year-old boy was grazed on his chest and a 45-year-old man suffered gunshot wounds to the chest and arm, police said.

The teenager was believed to be the man’s son and the woman was apparently unrelated. All three were uncooperative with police, the sources said.
