A man was fatally shot and another wounded in a drive-by shooting in Queens early Thursday — the latest in the Big Apple’s epidemic of gunplay, cops said.

A 21-year-old man was sitting in the driver’s seat of his car and a 19-year-old man was standing outside the vehicle at the corner of 91st Street and 85th Avenue in Woodhaven just before 4:30 a.m. when a dark sedan rolled up and the occupants started firing at the pair, according to police sources.

The older man, who was blasted in the head and torso, was taken to NYC Health & Hospitals/Elmhurst, where he was pronounced dead, cops said.

The younger victim, who was shot in the left arm, was taken to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, where he is listed in serious condition.

No one has been arrested in connection with the slaying.

Hours earlier, around 11:30 p.m. Wednesday, a 30-year-old man was blasted in the face on Dumont Avenue near Mother Gaston Boulevard in Brownsville, cops said.

He was taken to Brookdale Hospital Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries.

Cops are looking for a man between 20 and 25 years old, wearing a white T-shirt and blue jeans.

About two hours earlier, a 29-year-old man was shot twice in the back during a dispute on Howard Avenue near Park Place in Weeksville around 9:30 p.m., cops said.

He was taken to Brookdale with non-life-threatening injuries.

And around 8 p.m., a 37-year-old woman was grazed in the head and a 20-year-old man was shot in the foot at Cornelia Street and Cypress Avenue in Ridgewood, Queens, cops said.

It is unclear whether either was the intended target.

Cops say a group of men took off on foot after the incident, and another — who may have been the shooter — fled on a motorized bicycle.

A total of four shootings with five victims were reported Monday.

The shootings come amid a recent spike in gunplay citywide.
