1 person killed, 7 more injured, including 18-month-old, in Savannah shooting
One person was killed and seven others, including an 18-month-old child, were injured Friday night in a shooting in Savannah, Ga.
Police said Arthur Milton, 20, was killed when at least 60 shots were fired outside a home, local NBC affiliate WSAV reported.
The other victims were not identified, though police said an 18-month-old, a 15-year-old and 16-year-old were also shot, according to the Savannah Morning News. No suspects have been arrested.
Police said a red sedan was spotted driving away from the home in east Savannah, the Morning News reported. Cops described the shooting as a drive-by.
Authorities said the same residence was hit with 10 bullets in a shooting Tuesday night, though no one was injured, according to local ABC affiliate WJCL. Cops said investigators were stonewalled when asking about Tuesday night’s shooting.
City leaders begged for help investigating Friday night’s deadly shooting.
“If you know something say something because if not, we’ll be doing this again tomorrow night, and I do not want to do this again tomorrow night,” Mayor Van Johnson said in a press conference. “If you’re sick and tired of it, then do something about it.”
