Police are hunting a triggerhap­py brute who opened fire on a Queens street, officials said Saturday.

Cops have released a startling video of the gunman showing him about to fire his pistol on Cornelia St. near Wyckoff Ave. in Ridgewood about 4:15 p.m. on Friday.

The gunman fired several rounds, but didn’t hit anybody, just a silver Nissan Sentra parked on the block, witnesses told police.

No injuries were reported, police said. There is no evidence that he was aiming at anyone when he fired, according to sources.

The gunman was with two other men when he opened fire, cops said. The three were last seen running on Wyckoff Ave. toward Halsey St.

The suspect is described as Hispanic, between 16 and 20 years old with a small build, tattoos on his right arm and a goatee. He was last seen wearing camouflage shorts, a black T-shirt, a green bucket hat and white and black sneakers.

His two companions are also described as Hispanic and are between 18 and 20 years old, cops said.

Anyone with informatio­n regarding their whereabout­s is urged to call NYPD Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS.
