Two people were killed and four others wounded in a string of separate city bar shootings within 24 hours over the weekend.

The most recent fatal incident happened Sunday morning in Brooklyn. 

Cops responded to a 911 call for a man shot in the event space The Loft at 824 Alabama Ave. in Canarsie, around 4:12 a.m., police said.

When police arrived, they found 24-year-old Jayden Smith with a gunshot wound to his torso, cops said.

EMS rushed the man to Brookdale Hospital Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead, according to authorities. 

It’s unclear what sparked the incident, as witnesses have been uncooperative with the police, sources said. 

A 23-year-old man told The Post that his girlfriend recalled hearing 30 shots ring out in the club during the fatal shooting. 

“She asked me to pick her up, so I just stayed up last night. Then she called me at like 4 a.m. crying. She got blood on her. It wasn’t her blood,” he said.

A 40-year-old woman whose catering business was contracted to set up an appetizer station for the party told The Post she had been sitting in her car outside when the shooting began.

“People were just running,” the woman said.

“Once I saw the crowd pass, I said, ‘Let me go in and see if I can pick up my stuff.’ Then I said, ‘I’m not going to pick up anything,’ ’cause the guy was on the floor.

“They were doing CPR. I just walked right back out after I saw him,” the woman said. 

Several hours earlier, around 9:40 p.m. Saturday, a crazed customer who was kicked out of El Cerrito del Carmen Restaurant at 2024 McDonald Ave. in Gravesend, Brooklyn, came back and shot two people, including the female bartender who booted him, cops and law-enforcement sources said.

The two victims are hospitalized in stable condition, while the suspect is in the wind, cops said.

Another unrelated fatal shooting also took place Saturday morning in a bar in The Bronx. 

Cops responded to a 911 call for an assault taking place inside G&S Restaurant and Lounge at 4386 White Plains Road in Wakefield around 4:50 a.m., police said. 

When police arrived, they found a 38-year-old man with gunshot wounds to his chest, left arm and left leg, cops said. 

The man was rushed to St. Barnabas Hospital by EMS and is in stable condition, according to authorities. 

But cops later pieced together that a man who also arrived at nearby Montefiore Einstein Hospital by private means was involved in the incident, too, police said. 

That man was moved to NYC Health and Hospitals/Jacobi in critical condition by EMS and was later pronounced dead, according to authorities. 

The shooting stemmed from a physical dispute, sources said.
