PROSPECT-LEFFERTS GARDENS — Five people were hurt when a fight ended in gunfire outside a Flatbush Avenue bar early Monday, police said.
A group of people got too rowdy inside D Avenue, at 673 Flatbush Ave. about 2:40 a.m. as the place was closing and they were asked to leave, an NYPD spokesman said.
Another man was waiting outside for one of the exiting group, according to the bar's owner, Richard Raphael, 37.
Surveillance footage shows a man abruptly punch another person just before a crowd gathers around, blocking them from view.
"The guy ran across the street, bloodied and battered. One guy shot at him," Raphael said.
The gunfire hit four men who were all treated at Kings County Hospital for injuries that weren't considered life-threatening, police said.
"Our bouncer was trying to separate the fight and he got slashed in the back of the head," the bar owner said.
Later in the surveillance footage, a man lumbers into the establishment and collapses on the bar.
There were no immediate arrests, an NYPD spokesman said.
"We've gone three years with no incidents, but this summer is crazy," Raphael added.
