At least six people were shot in five separate incidents across the Big Apple overnight, cops said Tuesday.

Most recently, a 56-year-old man was taken by private means to Lincoln Medical Center with a gunshot wound to the torso minutes before 1 a.m., cops said.

It’s unclear when and where he was shot.

About a half-hour earlier, a 61-year-old man was shot in the back in the first-floor hallway of a building on Park Avenue near East 181st Street in the East Tremont neighborhood during a dispute with another man, police said.

He was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital in stable condition.

The suspect took off in a white SUV.

In Brooklyn, a 35-year-old man was blasted in the right leg on Newkirk Avenue near Jean-Jacques Dessalines Boulevard in Flatbush around 10:10 p.m. Monday during a squabble with another person, cops said.

The victim — whom cops described as uncooperative — was taken to the Kings County Hospital Center in stable condition.

Shots were fired in a pair of incidents in Queens around 9:30 p.m., cops said.

In one incident, at 160th Street and 170th Avenue in Jamaica, a 22-year-old man was struck in the chest and right arm, and a 59-year-old man was hit in the left hand during a dispute with a man who fired from a gray SUV, according to cops and police sources.
