Chilling new video captures the moment dozens of panicked patrons run for their lives as deadly gunfire breaks out at a packed Brooklyn hookah lounge early Sunday.
The crowd is seen spilling out onto the sidewalk outside Taste of the City Lounge in Crown Heights shortly before 3:30 a.m., fleeing as up to four gunmen open fire inside during a dispute — leaving three dead and nine others wounded.
The surveillance footage shows one man stumbling out of the club and falling to the sidewalk, where he is helped by another man and hauled away while others run for their lives.
Another man is captured falling to the curb at the Franklin Avenue street corner, where he remains without moving for the duration of the 2-minute clip.
Cops later recovered 42 spent shells from .9mm and 25-caliber weapons, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said during press briefings on Sunday.
Tisch said a 19-year-old victim was pronounced dead at the scene, and two other men — ages 27 and 35 — died at nearby hospitals.
Police have launched a manhunt for the gun-toting killers.
