Gunfire erupted around 2:15 a.m. Sunday in front of 1430 Boston Road, where a man fired a single round before fleeing the scene on foot. No one was injured in the incident, and the motive remains unclear.

Surveillance images released by the NYPD show the suspect moments before the shooting, but his identity is still unknown. Investigators believe he may have been involved in a dispute or sent a warning shot, though no further details were released.
