Detectives have a person of interest in custody following an early-morning shooting outside a Richmond Hill nightclub on Sunday that left two men injured.

Law enforcement sources said the gunfire erupted at 3:30 a.m. on April 15 outside the Rose Lounge at the corner of 130th Street and 90th Avenue.

According to police, the shooting stemmed from a dispute that started inside of the lounge and spilled out into the street.

An unidentified shooter shot a 27-year-old man in the head and a second man suffered a graze wound, police said. Paramedics rushed both men to Jamaica Hospital; their injuries are not considered life-threatening.

Shortly after the shooting, cops from the 102nd Precinct took an unidentified person of interest into custody for questioning. No charges have been filed as of yet.

The investigation is ongoing, police said.
