Four gunmen in the Bronx who opened fire on two people in broad daylight earlier this week remain at large, police reported.

The quartet of shooters are shown in video that the NYPD released Friday night running near the scene of the crime shortly after the gunfire erupted at around 1:30 p.m. on May 11 in front of stores at 3762 White Plains Road in Olinville.

According to law enforcement sources, the suspects acted in concert and approached two male individuals at the location — displaying multiple firearms and rapidly pulling the trigger.

One of the victims, a 21-year-old man, suffered gunshot wounds to his thigh. The extent of injuries to the second, unidentified victim were not known, authorities said.

After the gunfire, cops reported, the suspects fled from the location on foot, and were last seen heading westbound on East 219th Street.

The shooting was reported to the 47th Precinct. Police learned that the 21-year-old man was taken via private means to Montefiore Medical Center, where he was listed in stable condition.

Police described the four shooters as men in their late teens or early 20s.
