Queens leaders react to New Year’s night mass shooting at Jamaica event space, security measures scrutinized

Queens elected officials were left shocked and dismayed by a mass shooting outside a Jamaica event space on New Year’s night that left ten young people injured while they waited to get into a “celebration of life” for a teen who was gunned down in Brooklyn.

An urgent manhunt is underway for the four young men who opened fire on people who were waiting in line outside the Amazura Concert Hall at 91-12 144th Place at around 11:20 p.m. Police from the 103rd Precinct in Jamaica responded to multiple 911 calls of shots fired and arrived at the scene to find six women and four men between the ages of 16 and 20, who suffered gunshot wounds as they ran for their lives when the gunmen fired at least thirty shots.
