VIDEO: Five People Were Shot At New York City’s Rucker Park Last Night


Five people were shot during a late-night fracas that devolved into gunfire in Harlem’s famous Rucker Park last night. Former Knick Nate Robinson was one of the people “scrambling for safety,” according to the New York Post.

Video of the scene was posted on WorldstarHipHop, and show a group of people either in the beginning stages or the closing moments of a fight. Towards the end of the video, shots ring out, and a woman is heard saying “Oh! Oh!”

The fight began in the stands, according to an eyewitness.

“All of a sudden the game stopped because an argument broke out in the stands,” said witness Rodney Harris Jr., 47, who was five feet from the melee.

“The next thing you know one guy reaches into his pants pocket and pulled out a gun. He fired one shot into the crowd and then another,” Harris said.

The lone shooter then ran out of the park and onto a corner before firing a few more rounds. Thankfully, nobody was seriously hurt, and Robinson was escorted out.
