Five people were shot during New York City’s West Indian American Day Parade.

AP News quotes NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell as saying that a gunman targeting a specific group of people opened fire around 2:35pm yesterday.

He said, “This was not random. This was an intentional act by one person towards a group of people.”

Of the five people shot, two were critically wounded.

AP News says this is the latest instance of violence marring the celebrations, noting that two people were killed near the parade route in 2016 and a governor’s aide was fatally shot in 2015.
