TIMES SQUARE — A group shot four BB gun pellets at the window of a Times Square hotel, causing $250 worth of damage, the NYPD said.

An employee of the Gallivant Times Square at 234 W. 48th St., between Broadway and Eighth Avenue, told police that “unknown individuals” shot the pellets at the window around 7 a.m. on Oct. 9.

No one was injured by the pellets, police said.

It wasn't clear if the window shattered as a result, but it cost the hotel $250 to replace, the NYPD said.

A Gallivant Times Square manager did not immediately respond to request for comment Thursday.
