It all happened just before 1 p.m. on Commonwealth Avenue, close to Westchester Avenue in the Soundview neighborhood of the Bronx.
The video shows the pair cornering the man against a wall during a disturbing moment of violence.
Despite taking a serious beating, the man on the ground stood back up. The footage shows one of his attackers—wearing a black T-shirt and orange shorts grabbing him from behind as the situation took a dramatic turn.
The other assailant, dressed in red sweatpants and a white T-shirt, took off running as more gunshots rang out in his direction. The video captures the chaotic scene as the roles quickly reversed.
According to police, the man who was shot was rushed to Jacobi Medical Center. He remains in critical condition as of the latest update.
Authorities say no arrests have been made so far, and they are continuing to investigate the incident.
