At least four people were hurt in three shootings in the Big Apple overnight Monday — including a victim targeted by two ATVriding suspects who wanted to steal his motorcycle, according to cops.

A 35-year-old man was riding his motorcycle on the southbound Harlem River Drive near 155th Street in Washington Heights at around 1:30 a.m. Tuesday when the duo pulled up alongside him and opened fire as they attempted to steal his ride, police said.

The victim was shot in the groin — but managed to hold onto his motorcycle, authoritie­s said.

He drove himself to Harlem Hospital, where he was listed in stable condition.

Hours earlier, at around 9 p.m. Monday, a 25-year-old man was hit in the left elbow and a 52-year-old man struck in the right shoulder during a dispute at Yates Avenue and Boston Road in the Laconia section of The Bronx.

Both victims were taken to Jacobi Medical Center in stable condition.

The gunman ran off after the incident.

About 15 minutes earlier, a 25-year-old man walked into Metropolit­an Hospital on the Upper East Side gunshot wounds to his upper thighs.

He was uncooperat­ive and refused to tell police where the shooting occurred.

The victim, a member of the Broad Day Shooters gang, told cops, “F--k you,” and declined to give any informatio­n, police sources said.
