On Tuesday Sept. 27th, surveillance video captured the shooting of a teen outside a McDonald’s on Nostrand Ave. in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn. Known to us as “The Junction” where two of the boroughs biggest avenues (Flatbush & Nostrand) intersect. The busy shopping area plays host to consumers, pedestrians en route to work, nearby Brooklyn College students and teens who often congregate at the neighborhood Micky D’s. But the above video shows a gripping depiction of what also can happen as a group of young men are entering the McDonalds in question where one dressed in all black can be seen walking backwards and handing a black bag to another other man wearing a white t-shirt and dark jeans who then removes a .32 caliber Smith & Wesson revolver from the bag, places it in his waistband and hands it over to the gunman, seen wearing a red track jacket and khaki cargo’s. As the 18-year-old victim, seen wearing a white tank tap and dark shorts, goes to enter the McDonalds restaurant, he is shot multiple times by the gunman in the torso, groin, leg, and grazed in the head falling to the ground and rolling in the street in pain. The victim was taken to Kings County Hospital where he is currently listed in critical but stable condition. – ICE
