near the Long Island home of GOP gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin had been at a recording studio on a reservation in Suffolk County that is known for gang activity, a law enforcement official told The Post.
Detectives are investigating the drive-by shooting as gang-related and were still looking for the gunman or gunmen, a law enforcement source said. Two boys were shot outside the home of GOP gubernatorial candidate Rep. Lee Zeldin in Shirley, New York.Police sources said neither Zeldin nor his family were targeted in the shooting.“It really freaked them out. This is something where you had two people who got shot who are essentially lying down about 10 feet from where they were doing homework,” he said.
“It could be gang-related but that doesn’t make you feel any better. I mean, that’s the problem with Chicago right now. It’s a complete disaster,” he continued.Zeldin, who has made rising crime one of his prime campaign issues, said one reporter asked him an “outrageous” question about politicizing the incident.
“But the reality right now in this state is that viewers don’t feel safe,” Zelding went on to say, adding that people are afraid of being pushed in the subways.
