A 13-year-old boy was shot in the head outside a Queens Dunkin’ Donuts Monday morning — leaving him clinging to life, cops said.
The boy was struck when a gunman opened fire around 8:20 a.m. in front of the shop at the corner of Linden and Springfield Boulevard in Cambria Heights, police said.
The suspect, described as a man wearing a white hoodie, white sneakers and carrying a black backpack, ran off, sources said.
First responders rushed the teen to Cohen Children’s Medical Center, where he was still in critical condition by the late morning.
The motive was not yet clear.
Cops could not immediately confirm whether the teen was headed to school at the time that he was shot, but the scene is just blocks from multiple schools – including P.S./M.S. 147 Ronald McNair, Benjamin Franklin High School and P.S. 176 Cambria Heights.
