Multiple people were hospitalized after being shot in a Brooklyn park earlier this afternoon.
According to police, the incident occurred at 2:20 p.m. in a park at 195 Menahan Street in Bushwick. Four people, three males and one females, were shot.
The FDNY tells us that five people were shot, three "green" tags and two "red" tags, and were taken to Elmhurst, Kings County and Brookdale Hospitals (here's some info on color-tagging).
We'll update when more information becomes available.
