Three men were hit by bullets, including a 30-year-old victim who’d been shot in the head, and a fourth man was stabbed in the armpit during three separate nightclub attacks in Brooklyn and the Bronx within three hours early Saturday, police said.
The bloodshed began at around 1:45 a.m. when a fight broke out inside Tulum Brooklyn, a late-night restaurant and lounge on Broadway near Hart St. in Bedford Stuyvesant.
During the fight, a 23-year-old man was stabbed in the armpit with a sharp object, cops said.
The victim managed to take himself to Woodhull Hospital, where he was treated for a minor injury.
The night spot was hosting its annual “Pink Party” at around the time the stabbing occurred.
Just before 2 a.m., a 36-year-old man was shot in the stomach and a 38-year-old man was shot once in each leg, during a clash inside El Palenque Hall on Home St. in Crotona Park East, cops said.
Both men were taken to area hospitals with minor injuries.
Nearly three hours later and about three miles away from the first Brooklyn nightclub attack, a 30-year-old man was shot in the head inside the Quilox Restaurant and Lounge on Church Ave. near 95th St. in East Flatbush, police said.
It was not immediately clear what sparked the 4:30 a.m. shooting.
EMS rushed the victim to Brookdale University Hospital, where he remained in critical condition on Saturday.
No one else in the club was injured, officials said.
Earlier in the night, the nightclub was holding a birthday celebration for club promoter Tizzy Tiny, according to the club’s Instagram account. A night of “NYC’s top DJs” was promised.
No arrests have been made in any of the three cases.
The attack at Quilox was the first shooting in East Flatbush this year, according to NYPD statistics. This time last year, three shootings had taken place.
The NYPD said 2025 was the city’s safest year since the department began keeping modern-day crime stats in 1994, with a 20% drop in homicides and a 24% drop in shootings.
