AT least 11 people have been injured in a mass shooting outside a New York nightclub.
Gunshots erupted outside the venue in Queens on New Year’s Day when dozens were standing outside.
It’s thought most of the injured victims were teens, as reported by The New York Post.
Police have revealed that three to four men opened over 30 times at a line outside the club, per Fox News.
The venue, which can hold up to 4,000 people, was thought to be hosting a private party at the time of the shooting.
No arrests have been made, but cops are also looking for a gray car as part of their probe.
Police have also been seen putting evidence markers near the venue.
And, they’ve already recovered several shell casings.
The victims were rushed to the hospitals near the concert hall.
Six women and four men were wounded, but none are thought to be critical, and all are expected to survive.
Footage shared on Citizen showed cop cars and ambulances charging to the nightclub.
It was the second shooting that happened in the vicinity of the nightclub within a matter of months.
In April, two men were shot and injured.
Police have stressed that the shooting is not a terrorist attack.
But, the gun violence came just hours after New Orleans was hit by a terror attack that left 15 dead.
Shamsud Din Jabbar, 42, deliberately drove a Ford SUV into a crowd of revelers who were ushering in the New Year on the city’s famed Bourbon Street.
Dozens were left injured in the carnage that unfolded.
Cops revealed Jabbar drove the truck at high speeds and was intentional in his actions.
Investigators also uncovered an ISIS flag and discovered pipe bombs that were hidden within coolers.
Meanwhile, witnesses have recalled the chaos that unfolded.
Whit Davis told the BBC that people started hiding under tables.
“We had been on and around Bourbon Street since the beginning of the evening,” he said.
“When we were in the bar we didn’t hear shooting or crashes because the music was so loud.”
Swat teams have since been seen cornering a man seen outside Jabbar’s home in Texas.
Jabbar’s brother, Abdul, 24, told The New York Times his older sibling had converted to Islam a long time ago.
“What he did does not represent Islam,” he said.
“This is more some type of radicalization, not religion.”
The FBI believes Jabbar, who was hired by a consultancy firm, wasn’t solely responsible for the attack.
