The NYPD released video footage of a wild shootout that took place in Corona last month – and are asking for the public’s help in identifying the suspects involved.

The gunfight took place at about 12:30 a.m. on April 19 in front of a tire shop at 46-04 108 St.

Several people exchanged gunfire, and one person is shown in the video ducking behind an SUV and then returning fire. Two other people believed to be involved were pictured riding on a motorcycle.

No arrests had been made in connection to the shootout as of Sunday.

Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).

Three sought in armed robbery near Flushing Meadows Corona Park: NYPD

Police from the 110th Precinct in Elmhurst are looking for armed robbers who targeted a 26-year-old woman in Corona and remain at large nearly two weeks later.

Police say three strangers approached the woman as she walked near the Playground for All Children in Flushing Meadows Corona Park at Corona Avenue and Saultell Avenue at around 4:20 a.m. on Friday, July 12. One of the perpetrators allegedly pulled out a small silver revolver and threatened the victim, while the others forcibly removed two yellow gold necklaces worth $2,000, according to the police report; however, an NYPD spokesman said it is not clear if that was the value of both chains or each one individually.
