The gunmen allegedly fired more than a half dozen shots before speeding away from the crime scene in a dark-colored sedan toward Bushwick, police said.<\/p>\n<p>Police from the 104th Precinct responded to a 911 call of a female shot at the location and found a 23-year-old woman at the location, conscious and alert, with a gunshot wound to her left leg. EMS responded to the location and rushed the wounded bystander to Brookdale Hospital Medical Center, where she was listed in stable condition.<\/p>\n<p>It remains unclear who or what Tyler and his accomplices were shooting at when the woman was struck, according to law enforcement sources.\n<\/p>\n<p>Police on patrol spotted the dark colored sedan hours after the shooting and pulled over the vehicle, according to a source familiar with the investigation. Tyler and the three teens were taken into custody.<\/p>\n<p>Tyler, who lives in an apartment building just three blocks south of the crime scene, and the three teens were charged with attempted murder, criminal possession of a weapon and reckless endangerment. Their arraignment in Queens Criminal Court is pending Wednesday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Brooklyn man and three teens were arrested and charged with attempted murder and other crimes for allegedly&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":137693,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[37962,1271,98,100,99,303,9,24,63,103,104,35871,1096],"class_list":{"0":"post-137692","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-brooklyn","8":"tag-104th-precinct","9":"tag-attempted-murder","10":"tag-brooklyn","11":"tag-brooklyn-headlines","12":"tag-brooklyn-news","13":"tag-crime","14":"tag-new-york","15":"tag-new-york-city","16":"tag-nyc","17":"tag-nypd","18":"tag-police","19":"tag-queens-shooting","20":"tag-shooting"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137692","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=137692"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137692\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/137693"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=137692"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=137692"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=137692"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
