The 46-year-old man was blasted once in the buttocks in front of 71-06 Kissena Boulevard, near 71st Avenue, following a dispute inside a deli about 9:50 p.m. Monday, the NYPD said.

He suffered life-threatening injuries, but doctors at an area hospital managed to stabilize him, police said.

The suspect, who can be seen in dramatic police footage released Tuesday, fled north on Kissena Boulevard, according to police.
