Emergency services swarmed the Crown Heights area in Brooklyn shortly before 3:30am after multiple reports of gunfire, police confirmed.
Seven victims were found at 903 Franklin Ave with multiple people suffering from gunshot wounds.
They were urgently transported to local hospitals, police told The Sun.
Their conditions remain unknown.
Footage from the scene shows police lights flashing as ambulances rush down the street.
Witnesses said on social media a police cordon has been put in place with “crime tape stretched for blocks”.
Local media have said the suspect is still on the run.
The New York Police Department confirmed: “There are no arrests at this time, and the investigation is ongoing.”
The NYPD have urged residents to avoid the area while investigations are ongoing.
