An officer on scene later said the shooting took place outside the 238 Corner Store deli located at the corner of 238th Street and Broadway. Though not yet confirmed by the NYPD, a witness said at least one person was shot in the back and one in the leg.

 

One local deli employee working at another nearby deli on West 238th between Broadway and John M. Collins Place / Review Place, said he heard around three shots but did not see what had happened. Another man who had been inside the nearby Bronx Alehouse on 238th Street between Broadway and Putnam Avenue opposite John M. Collins Place / Review Place, said he didn’t hear any shots and just saw police arrive later.

 

An FDNY/EMS spokesperson said the department received a call at 5.11 p.m. for a report of a shooting at West 238th Street and Review Place (a block from Broadway). They said two people were taken to local area hospitals and their condition and description were unknown.

FDNY/EMS later said a third victim was transported [to hospital] by the NYPD before EMS arrived at the scene and that their condition and description was unknown.

 

Another NYPD member on scene later confirmed three people were shot, one was dead on arrival, and two were taken to hospital. According to another police source, the shooters were located on an elevated section of 238th Street between Putnam Avenue and John M. Collins Place / Review Place and fired the shots at the victims who were reportedly outside 238 Corner Store on the corner of Broadway and 238th Street, a distance of under 0.1 miles. According to police, the shooting is being investigated in the context of a possible “gang nexus,” and the victims involved are young.

 

One woman we spoke to said, “There’s always a lot of young kids gathered around here waiting for the bus after school but nothing violent. Like I know there’s fights and stuff like that but something like that around here is rare, let’s be honest. You don’t hear about a shoot-out in this often.”

Another local resident said he avoided the deli as he said it was often crowded, and that you never knew where deals were being made.

One local man told Norwood News he believes violence starts at home and that people are not happy in their homes or in their work and that this spills out on to the street. He and another man who both said they live in the area for over 13 years said they have never seen a shooting as bad as this.

 

The streets were blocked off from Putnam Avenue as far as Broadway and 238th Street by police. Helicopters were heard overhead in the area after the shooting, possibly with police searching for an aerial view of any fleeing suspects.

 

Asked for her reaction to the shooting, another resident who did not see what happened said, “It’s not something that shocks me. You never want to hear it. It’s not shocking. This area is really really calm. I’ve been here for almost 20 years.”
