He was taken to Kings County hospital, the Fire Department said.
A large police presence gathered on Eastern Parkway near the shooting scene.
Police are looking for two males in their teens or early 20s, wearing red caps and black jackets.
Because of a police investigation, southbound 3 and 4 trains were bypassing the Utica stop.

If it was Utica + St. John’s…
that vicinity is getting crazier by the minute! A few weeks ago, there must have been 20 police cruisers, 2 SWAT team trucks, probably a bank heist at the corner. There’s no easy answer to this ongoing madness. I do have a comment though which I’ve seen in other cities… when the City modernizes its sidewalks, upgrades its decor, gets rid of the dangerous hideout alleyways, and makes it more out in the open public family thoroughfare, it sort of upgrades goyish mentality as silly as it sounds. I might be wrong for Cr. Hts though… A jungle is always a jungle.
