BRONX - One teen is fighting for his life and another is recovering after being shot outside a Police Athletic League Center in the Bronx. 


Cops say a 15-year-old boy was shot in the head during an evening shooting in front of the PAL center in Longwood. A 16-year-old boy is recovering from a gunshot wound to the leg during the same shooting. 


At around 8:50 pm on January 19, the teens were part of a group of kids leaving the PAL center when shots rang out. Both victims were taken to Lincoln Hospital. The 15-year-old is in critical condition. 


Conflicting reports make the details of the shooting unclear. One report claims another group was outside the center and at least one member of this group opened fire. Cops are investigating the possibility that members of the two groups had gotten into a dispute hours earlier. 



Another claims a masked man stepped through the crowd of people leaving the center and opened fire. 


The case in under investigation. 


Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the CrimeStoppers website at https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/ or on Twitter @NYPDTips. 


All calls are strictly confidential.
