Ten people – including some minors – who were waiting in line for a private event at a nightclub in Jamaica, Queens, were injured late Wednesday night in an apparent drive-by shooting, New York City police officials said.

A 40-year-old mother was one of six people shot in a New York City convenience store when she was used as a shield by a suspected target, authorities said.

About 30 shots were fired before the gunmen fled on foot and were then seen getting into a sedan with out-of-state plates.
