Four men have been arrested for the crazed Coney Island shooting in which at least 25 shots were fired and two people were wounded, police said Friday. Responding officers grabbed the four suspects after their getaway vehicle crashed on Ocean Parkway, a short distance from the Thursday shooting by Surfside Gardens, a NYCHA housing complex on W. 31st St. near Surf Ave., police said. Bullets struck a 22-year-old woman in the buttocks and a 32-year-old man in the right hand, police said, although it was not immediately clear if they were the intended targets. Both victims have arrest records, a police source with knowledge of the case said.
