A man is in custody after two people were shot inside a Claremont apartment Saturday night, according to the NYPD.

Police responded to a 911 call at 9:27 p.m. for shots fired at 3970 Third Ave., where they say a man allegedly fired multiple rounds before barricading himself inside an apartment.

According to investigators, a 70-year-old woman was shot in the abdomen and a 60-year-old man suffered multiple gunshot wounds to the torso.

Neighbors told News 12 they were around when it happened.

“I saw a blockade, and they told me I couldn't enter the building because there was a guy there that was running back and forth between all three buildings." Etiange Domoa, a neighbor, said. "The front building was open for us to stay in while it was cold, but my building was closed. After like 30 minutes of me waiting, I heard that they finally got him.”

Paramedics took the victims to St. Barnabas Hospital. They are both expected to recover, according to police.

The NYPD says officers took a person of interest into custody at the scene. Sources close to the investigation say the person of interest is the ex-boyfriend of the 70-year-old woman.

No official arrests have been made as of Sunday afternoon.

Information about what led to the shooting was not immediately available.
