A teen was shot right in front of her dad in the Bronx Sunday — one of 16 victims of gun violence across the city that day, according to cops and police sources.

The 18-year-old victim was attending an unspecified car event with her dad around 5 a.m. Sunday on Viele Avenue near Barretto Street in Hunts Point when she was blasted once in the right leg, the sources said. The bullet then went through and struck her other leg.

She did not appear to be the intended target, the sources said.

Her dad said he realized she had been hit when he heard shots and his daughter’s cries, according to the sources. She was taken to Lincoln Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries.

In total, 12 shootings involving 16 victims occurred across the city Sunday.

On the same day last year, there were no shootings at all.

 

Later Sunday, two 22-year-old men and one 27-year-old man were attending a gathering on Classon Avenue near Dekalb Avenue in Clinton Hill around 10:30 p.m. when shots rang out, cops said.

One of the 22-year-olds was shot in the shoulder and transported to the Kings County Hospital Center, and the other was blasted in the back and taken to Brooklyn Methodist Hospital.

The older victim was shot in the leg and taken to the same hospital.

It’s unclear what sparked the violence.

Around the same time in the Bronx, an 18-year-old man was shot in the left shoulder on East 141st Street near Willis Avenue in Mott Haven, cops said.

The circumstances of the shooting were unclear, and cops described the victim as uncooperative.

Hours earlier, around 5:45 p.m., a 53-year-old innocent bystander was killed by a stray bullet at a handball court inside Lincoln Terrace Park off Eastern Parkway in Crown Heights.

The man was pronounced dead on the scene. He was not immediately identified by authorities.

Early Monday, cops also confirmed that the 36-year-old victim of a Saturday morning shooting on Buffalo Avenue near Park Place in Weeksville died of his injuries at Brookdale Hospital Medical Center.

Cops said they found him with gunshot wounds to his chest and stomach.

He was also not immediately identified, and the circumstances were unclear.

On Saturday, the city saw a total of five shootings with five victims. There were two incidents with two victims on that day last year.

Three shootings with three victims occurred in the city on Friday. There were no shootings on that day last year.
