After the incident, the suspects reportedly fled toward 143rd Avenue ang got in a light-colored sedan without license plates.
The victims, who included six females and four males, were aged between 16 and 19. All were rushed to a local hospital. Authorities confirmed that all the victims are expected to recover and that none of the injuries are life-threatening.
The New York Police Department (NYPD) reassured the public that the incident was “not a terrorist attack.”
