A brazen gunman shot his 20-year-old girlfriend in the neck outside a Staten Island Target store early Friday – and then escaped on a motorcycle, cops and sources said.
The 20-year-old victim was shot around 7:30 a.m. in front of the retailer on Richmond Avenue, part of a larger shopping complex in New Springville, police said.
She was taken to Staten Island University Hospital North, where she is listed in stable condition, cops said.
The shooting appeared to have stemmed from domestic violence, according to law enforcement sources, who described the gunman as the victim’s boyfriend.
