Police are searching for a gunman after a man and a young girl were shot in Queens last night.
According to police, two groups of men were arguing on Himrod Street in Ridgewood shortly before 9:30 p.m., when shots were fired.
A five-year-old girl was shot in the back. Police say she had been walking with her father when she was hit.
A 27-year-old man was shot in the leg.
One local resident said now he's afraid for the safety of his kids.
"I'm going to be thinking twice about being outside. Because that little girl got shot and she was probably just playing outside," said the local. "It's scary; it really is."
Both victims were taken to the hospital.
