Gunfire at a large, outdoor event in Brooklyn killed one man and injured at least 11 others late Saturday night, police said.
Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted early Sunday morning that the shooting in the east Brooklyn neighbourhood of Brownsville "shattered a peaceful neighbourhood event."
At least six people had been transported to local hospitals by just after midnight, with some in serious condition, a New York City fire department spokesman said earlier. He described the scene at the time as "fluid."
