#Coney Island drive-by is one of three fatal NYC shootings overnight

A man was killed and two others injured in a drive-by shooting in Coney Island early Wednesday — one of at least three people killed across the Big Apple overnight, police said Wednesday.

The 25-year old was among a trio of people found with gunshot wounds by cops who responded to shots fired just before 2 a.m. on West 16 Street and Neptune Avenue, the NYPD said.

He had been shot in the chest and was pronounced dead after being rushed to NYU Langone Hospital-Brooklyn, police said. He has not been identified pending family notification.

Two others were also injured as sources say at least six shots were fired in the drive-by attack, cops said.

A 37-year old man was hit in the buttocks and right ankle, while a 26-year old man was hit in the right forearm, the NYPD said. Both were listed as being in stable condition in NYC Health & Hospitals/Coney Island.

No arrests had been made in the ongoing investigation, the NYPD said.

The murder was just one of three fatal shootings overnight — with 43-year-old mom Bertha Arriaga hit in the head by a stray bullet that came through her Flushing bedroom window around 12:45 a.m., police said.

And late Tuesday, Roderick Smith, 36, was killed after being shot in the head and left shoulder on Highland Avenue in East New York just after 10.15 p.m., police said.

He was taken to Brookdale Hospital but pronounced dead. There had been no arrests by Wednesday morning, the NYPD said.
