Police from the 106th Precinct are looking for a gunman who opened fire on a quiet residential block in Ozone Park broad daylight after arguing with an unknown individual on the afternoon of Friday, June 6.

There were no injuries reported as a result of the shooting, and what triggered the argument between the gunman and the other person has not been disclosed, according to a police spokesman.
