2 Teenage Girls Shot Hours After N.Y..C. Pride Parade Near Historic Stonewall Inn

Two teenage girls were shot near the historic Stonewall Inn in New York City as annual Pride parade festivities were winding down, authorities said.

A 16-year-old girl was shot in the head and taken to the hospital in critical condition, according to an NYPD spokesperson, who said in a statement shared with PEOPLE that officers responded to the scene around 10:15 p.m. on Sunday, June 29.

Additionally, a 17-year-old girl was shot in the leg and reported to be in stable condition. 

A motive for the shooting remains unclear and no arrests have been made as of Monday morning, according to police. 

Mayor Eric Adams said in a post on X Sunday night that he was “saddened by the shooting.”

“During a time when our city should be rejoicing and celebrating members of our diverse LGBTQ+ community, incidents like this are devastating,” he wrote. “We’re praying for the speedy recovery of the victims in tonight’s shooting. The NYPD will work quickly and tirelessly to bring the suspects to justice.”

The shooting took place just hours after the city’s annual Pride march passed through the area. It honors the 1969 Stonewall riots, a turning point in the LGBTQ+ rights movement.
