It shows the suspect wearing a surgical face mask while pacing through the McDonald’s with his hands stuffed inside the pockets of a hooded sweatshirt.

Police rushed to the scene after reports of a shooting came in just before 10 p.m — with the gunman firing off at least six shots before fleeing, cops said.

When officers arrived, they found the 12-year-old boy with gunshot wounds to his back and left leg and his friend nursing a bullet hole in his left thigh, according to police.

Both kids were rushed Jacobi Hospital Medical Center in stable condition, police said.
