A gunman opened fire on three men at a Richmond Hill street corner early on Monday morning, killing one and leaving two others seriously injured, police reported.

Authorities said the gunfire broke out at around 4:27 a.m. on Sept. 2 near the intersection of 130th Street and 92nd Avenue, an industrial area of Richmond Hill near a Long Island Rail Road train yard. The New York Daily News reported the bullets rang out near the Mazi nightclub.

Officers from the 102nd Precinct, in responding to a 911 call about an assault, found Brooklyn resident Mohammed Uddin, 28, with a gunshot wound to his torso. They also discovered another 28-year-old man who had been shot multiple times in the chest, and a 27-year-old man who took bullets to both of his legs.

Law enforcement sources did not have any details regarding a possible motive, or the circumstances leading up to the shooting.

Paramedics rushed Uddin, a resident of Ocean Avenue in Flatbush, to Jamaica Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Police said the other 28-year-old man is currently listed in critical condition at Jamaica Hospital, and the 27-year-old man is at NewYork-Presbyterian Queens hospital in stable condition.

No arrests have been made in the ongoing investigation, police said.
