Two men were wounded — one gravely — in separate shootings inside and outside Upper Manhattan delis late Sunday, cops said. 

A 20-year-old man was blasted in the head during a shootout with a group of other men outside a bodega at West 104th Street and Columbus Avenue on the Upper West Side, around 11:40 p.m., cops said. 

He also fired a gun during the fight, but it did not appear that he had hit anyone, according to police. 

Investigators found a 9mm Taurus firearm in his hand, and a loaded 30-round magazine in his pocket, police sources said.

He was taken to St. Luke’s Hospital, where he was listed in critical condition and underwent surgery. 

He has six prior arrests, including busts for robbery and criminal possession of a controlled substance, according to police sources. 

Further uptown around 10 p.m., a 21-year-old man was blasted in the stomach and lower back during a dispute with two other men inside the 1128 Gourmet Deli on Frederick Douglass Boulevard near West 112th Street in Harlem, cops said. 

Footage shows a suspect firing several rounds into the store at the victim, police sources said. Investigators found two bullet fragments inside the deli. 

The victim was also taken to St. Luke’s, where he also underwent surgery, but was listed in stable condition. 

The nature of the dispute was not immediately clear.

No arrests have been made in either shooting.
