A 40-year-old man was shot in the right leg at East 92nd Street and Farragut Road in Canarsie on Thursday, Oct. 29. He was taken to Brookdale University Hospital in stable condition, and three suspects left in a silver sedan, amNewYork reported, citing police and sources familiar with the investigation.
The vehicle was last seen heading along East 91st Street, according to the report; its whereabouts afterward have not been disclosed. No arrests had been made as of Friday morning. Road rage was raised as a possible factor by sources, but the motive remains under investigation and has not been established.
Precinct figures offer broader context
The NYPD identifies the 69th Precinct as serving Canarsie. Its CompStat report lists eight shooting incidents year-to-date through Oct. 25, compared with 11 over the same period in 2025, a precinct-wide count that predates Thursday’s shooting and does not explain its circumstances or motive, according to the NYPD.
A separate Canarsie shooting earlier this year
The current case is not the only shooting reported in Canarsie this year. Brooklyn Paper reported that a separate incident on July 17 at 9602 Glenwood Road wounded a 25-year-old man and a 30-year-old woman. The incidents differ in location, date and number of people wounded; the earlier case does not establish a connection to Thursday’s shooting.
