Report: Man expected to survive after being shot multiple times on 4th Street

In recap of shootings around the city this past weekend, the Post reported that a 41-year-old man was shot multiple times late Saturday night on Fourth Street west of Avenue C.

According to the paper, the man, identified by neighbors as Thomas Gonzalez, was shot in the chest "as at least three people rode up on bicycles — firing a barrage of at least nine shots" just after 2:30 a.m.

Gonzalez was reportedly visiting family members at the Bracetti Plaza. At the time of the shooting, he was talking to friends in seats near a kids' play area, per the Post.

His injuries were not thought to be life-threatening, police said.
