According to the report, several callers reported numerous gunshots and a large group fleeing from the area of the basketball court behind the McKinley Firehouse.

“Preliminary investigation revealed that a large group had been gathered near the basketball court,” the report says. “As a vehicle traveled northbound on Cadwalader Avenue, two males ran into the parking lot of the McKinley Firehouse, retrieved firearms, and one male discharged multiple rounds at the passing vehicle.”
