Police: 4 shot inside NYC concert venue

NEW YORK (AP) — Police say four people have been shot inside a concert venue in New York City, where hip-hop artist T.I. was scheduled to perform.

It happened around 10:15 p.m. Wednesday at Irving Plaza, near Manhattan's Union Square.

Police say a 34-year-old man was shot in the chest and a 33-year-old man was shot in the stomach. They're hospitalized in critical condition. A 26-year-old woman was shot in the leg. Police say a fourth person walked into a hospital on their own.

No arrests have been made.

A concertgoer says T.I. was supposed to take the stage around 9 or 9:30 p.m., but never went on.

Representatives for T.I., whose real name is Clifford Joseph Harris Jr., say they're referring all questions about the shooting to police.

Looking at the Irving Plaza website, it is a gun free zone. Strange that the bad guys had guns. Hmmmmmmmm

funny how they don't seem scared about non Muslim terrorists, even though tens of thousands of their citizens are gunned down every year.

One muslim shoots someone and it's a whole other story though.
