A teen was shot dead and another injured when a gunman opened fire on a Brooklyn street in broad daylight Wednesday, police said.

A 17-year-old was shot once in the chest and once in the face around 2:30 p.m. in front of 436 East 26th Street in Flatbush, cops said. He was rushed to Kings County Hospital but didn’t survive.

A 16-year-old suffered a bullet wound to the arm, and was taken to the same hospital in stable condition, cops said.

“They’re talking to this kid now,” a police spokesman said. “Hopefully, he’s able to reveal something.”

Police said it was a possible attempted robbery. The 17-year-old had a birthday five days ago, cops said.

The shooting comes amid a spike in gun violence in the city.
