Bullets over Broadway: Two innocent bystanders, including tourist, shot in Times Square after fight

The bullets that flew in Times Square Saturday night struck an 18-year-old tourist in an Uber and a man standing on the sidewalk, after a teen shooter argued with a Citibike rider and fired into the street, police sources said Saturday.

The 17-year-old gunman, who was inside the restaurant Raising Cane on Broadway when the dispute first erupted, decided to settle his beef with the Citibike rider outside the eatery.

He went onto the street and fired three shots at a group of about a dozen Citibike riders, striking one of them — a 19-year-old — in the foot, the sources said.

His bullets also grazed the tourist’s neck as she road with her parents and siblings in the for-hire car, her mother and father, who were visiting from Maryland, told The Post.

“We heard gunshots,” the teen’s mom said. “My daughter was holding her neck. She was bleeding.”

The parents – who also had their 11-year-old twins with them – had just taken a late night bus tour around the city and were getting a ride back to their car in a parking lot.

“It’s a very horrific experience,” said the mom, who asked to remain anonymous. “We decided to take our time to come to Times Square. We just felt that we would have a beautiful experience at night to see the whole city.”

Her daughter was treated at Bellevue Hospital and released. She plans to start college at Morgan State University in the fall.

“They were going to put stitches in but decided not to,” the mom said.

Her husband, who also asked that his name be withheld, said the family was shocked by what happened.

“We were traumatized,” said the father, who’s originally from Nigeria. “If anyone told me to come to Times Square for even $1 million I wouldn’t do it.”

The injured 65-year-old was also taken to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition.

Cops pulled the teen shooter into custody at the scene and recovered a Glock from him, the sources said. Three .380 mm shell casings were also recovered at the scene.

Rodney Booij, manager of Carmine’s restaurant, near the scene said there was a shooting nearby a couple weeks earlier.

“If you look at the subways, you have more police controlling everything, so if it’s not happening there,” he said. “Since the police is there, it’s happening here.”

Shootings were down in the Midtown South Precinct, which covers Times Square, so far this year from four to one as of Aug. 3, according to NYPD data.
