Sources: 2 high school students shot at Brooklyn bodega

NEW YORK -- Police sources say two 18-year-olds were shot at a bodega in Brooklyn on Tuesday.

The gunfire broke out just before 2:30 p.m. across the street from Lillian L. Rashkis High School in Sunset Park. Sources say both victims are students there.

Security video shows a suspect firing a gun and people running for cover. Another video from inside a convenience store shows the two victims at the door when the shooting begins.

"I thought it was, like, fireworks, but then later on when I realized that he got shot, I kinda got scared," store clerk Damag Sufyan said.

"It caught us off-guard. This isn't something you would think you would run into or expect any," witness Aileen DeLarosa said.

The victims were taken to a local hospital in stable condition.

Police sources tell us two people were taken into custody at the scene and a gun was recovered.

No word yet on any charges or what sparked the gunfire.
