Several gunshots rang out during a dispute in the heart of Times Square on Thursday afternoon, sending panicked tourists and commuters scrambling for safety, according to dramatic video.
Nobody was struck by gunfire, but a bullet did hit a car when at least one gunman opened fire near West 44th Street and Seventh Avenue just after 3:30 p.m., cops and witnesses said.
“There were shots fired, and my car got hit in the hood,” Bonnie White told The Post.
“I just heard the shots fired, and I seen the guy,” she said “I’m pissed. I’m so mad. I don’t know what’s going to happen to my car.”
Police said several people were involved in a fight that exploded into gunfire.
Witnesses reported hearing about five shots and wild video captured that moment, showing scores of people bolt for cover.
A gun was recovered at the scene and one suspect is in custody.
