A 14-year-old girl was shot in the leg while walking on the sidewalk in downtown Brooklyn on Thursday afternoon, police said.

The bullet grazed the girl’s left leg at about 6:30 p.m. near Myrtle Avenue and Navy Street in front of NYCHA’s Ingersoll Houses, cops said. It’s not clear if she was the intended target of the shooting, authorities said.

She later walked into Brooklyn Hospital Center in nearby Fort Greene, a police source said.

A suspect wearing dark clothing was seen running from the scene after the shooting, cops said.

No arrests have been made, police said.
