NEW YORK — Three men have been shot and wounded in midtown Manhattan in an area that is traditionally buzzing with tourists near the Empire State Building and Macy’s.

The shooting happened Sunday afternoon on West 31st Street.

Police say the victims were taken to a hospital with injuries that are not believed to be life-threatening.

Neighbourhood resident David Markovich says he arrived at the scene just seconds after gunfire erupted.

Markovich says police and ambulances arrived moments later.
