Police are investigating a shooting that occurred last weekend on a quiet residential street near Astoria Park.

At approximately 5 a.m. on Saturday, multiple shots were fired on 24th Street between Hoyt Avenue N and 24th Avenue. A spent round was found lodged in the doorframe of 24-57 24th St., according to the NYPD.

Captain Peter Fortune, Commanding Officer of the 114 Precinct, said that a bullet also entered a neighboring window, but could not immediately confirm the address.

Police found no evidence of injuries and the investigation is ongoing.
