The New York Police Department’s 115th Precinct is actively searching for an unidentified gunman responsible for shooting two teenagers in the Corona neighborhood of Queens. The incident occurred on the night of Friday, August 28, 2026, in the vicinity of 103rd Street and 39th Avenue. Police responded to a 911 call reporting an assault in progress just before 8:30 p.m. Upon arrival, officers discovered a 13-year-old boy suffering from a gunshot wound to the arm and an 18-year-old male with a gunshot wound to his ankle. Both victims were transported by emergency medical services to Elmhurst Hospital, where they are currently listed in stable condition. As of the latest report on Monday, August 31, the motive behind the shooting remains undetermined. Authorities have not released a physical description of the suspect, and no arrests have been made. The investigation is ongoing, and the NYPD is urging the public to come forward with any information that could help identify the shooter. Residents and witnesses are asked to contact the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or the Spanish-language line at 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).

This shooting is part of a broader statistical trend in the 115th Precinct, which reported 283 felony assaults in 2026 through August 30, a 23.9% decrease from the same period in 2025. However, shooting incidents have seen a slight increase, with five people injured in four incidents so far this year, compared to none at the same point in 2025.
