A gunman shot an SUV driver on a Queens street Saturday morning and a second man was wounded by a bullet that may have been fired by a responding cop, police said.
The chaotic incident unfolded at 89th Street and Roosevelt Avenue in Jackson Heights around 3:15 a.m., when an armed man shot into a black Toyota SUV, with the bullet striking a 44-year-old inside, police said.
A police officer who responded to the scene fired one round from his weapon, but it wasn’t clear if his bullet struck anyone, cops said.
