A young man was fatally shot in Brooklyn Tuesday — just hours after a nearby barrage of bullets left a 15-year-old boy dead and another teen wounded, police said.
Police raced to a building on Lefferts Ave. near New York Ave. in Prospect Lefferts Gardens after gunshots rang out just after 6 p.m., cops said.
When officers arrived, they found the 21-year-old victim with multiple gunshot wounds to the back.
Medics rushed him to nearby Kings County Hospital, but he could not be saved. His name was not immediately released.
The bloodshed came less than three hours after a 15-year-old boy was shot in the head and a 16-year-old boy was hit in the shoulder about a mile away — on E. 93rd St. near Rutland Road in East Flatbush — just before 3:35 p.m., cops said.
The 15-year-old also died at Kings County Hospital, while the older boy was taken to Brookdale University Hospital and is expected to recover.
There were no immediate arrests in either shooting.
