Cops say that a 14-year old boy was arrested in connection with two brazen BB guns shootings by a fruit stand worker, and MTA employee.

According to cops, he was also taken to St. Barnabas Hospital with a cut across his face.

According to authorities, the teenager was arrested for assault and criminal possession.
