At least three people were shot — one fatally — across the city late Thursday, according to police. 

Cops responded at around 6:50 p.m. to a shots-fired call in an apartment on Hegeman Avenue near Herzl Street, authorities said.

A preliminary investigation determined that two women and one man were inside the apartment, in possession of drug paraphernalia. They were taken into custody, with charges pending. 

Police later determined that a firearm was in the apartment, and returned to the apartment to recover it. 

There, they found an unidentified male unconscious and unresponsive under a bed, with multiple gunshot wounds to his body. 

He was taken to Brookdale Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Cops believe the victim was an 8 Trey Crip gang member, though that remained under investigation Friday morning. 

Then around 9:15 p.m., a 27-year-old man was shot in the left knee on Cumberland Walk, on the grounds of NYCHA’s Ingersoll Houses, cops said. 

He reported hearing shots and feeling pain, and was taken to NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital in stable condition. 

About two hours later, a woman was shot on East 152nd Street near Wales Avenue in the Melrose section of the Bronx, cops said. 

Her injuries were non-life-threatening, and the circumstances of the shooting are unclear.
