A teenage boy and a man were fatally shot in separate incidents in New York City Saturday night, amid an epidemic of shooting violence that has claimed the lives of several young victims in recent weeks, police said.

The New York Police Department said officers responded to a “shots fired” dispatch call just before midnight, and they found an 18-year-old victim with two gunshot wounds to his head, Fox 5 of New York reported.

The identity of the victim was also not revealed.

The death was reported mere hours before a pair of overnight shooting incidents Saturday night and into Sunday morning that left a 31-year-old man dead and a 17-year-old girl injured, the NYPD said.

The girl was struck in the head in the Bronx around 1 a.m., the New York Post reported.
