NY Post
A mom was shot and killed and her two kids were hurt when bullets rang out inside a Bronx building early Saturday — and cops were hunting for the gunman, who may be the victim’s boyfriend, authorities and sources said.
The 40-year-old was shot in the torso, her 8-year-old son was shot in the left arm and her 16-year-old son was struck in the buttocks in an apartment at 226 East 203rd St. near the Grand Concourse around 5 a.m., an NYPD spokesman said.
Rescue workers tried to save the mom, but she was pronounced dead at 6:12 a.m., cops said.
The 8-year-old was taken to Jacobi Hospital and the teen was being treated at St. Barnabas Hospital, cops said.
They were expected to survive.
A trail of blood could be seen from the building’s entrance, leading into the lobby, up the stairs, and to the fifth floor where the shooting occurred.
