A man behind the wheel of a car was shot in the head Monday afternoon, forcing him to lose control and strike a pedestrian in Queens, police said.
The NYPD said police responded to the St. Albans intersection around 5 p.m. for reports of a shooting. Chopper 4 captured a light-colored SUV crashed up against a building near 117th Road and Farmers Boulevard.
It wasn’t immediately clear where the 66-year-old driver was shot or how far he traveled before coming to a stop.
Police said the car also struck a female pedestrian before coming to a stop. Both the driver and the pedestrian were transported to a local hospital in critical condition.
The suspect in the shooting is believed to be a male in his teens, according to police. He was last seen wearing a white shirt, blue shorts and white Nike Air Force Ones. He ran off after the shooting.
