5, 19-year-old injured in drive-by shooting in Arlington

ARLINGTON— A 5-year-old and a 19-year-old were shot and killed in Arlington early Sunday morning in what police say was a drive-by shooting.

Shortly before 3 a.m., officers were called to a home in the 1000 block of Tennessee Trail to investigate reports of a drive-by shooting.

Responding officers found a 19-year-old man with multiple gunshot wounds in one of the bedrooms and a 5-year-old girl who had been shot in the hand. Both were taken to hospital and are expected to survive.

Arlington police said a bullet may have also grazed a 20-year-old man inside the home; however, he refused transport and was treated and released at the scene. Two other people who were in the home at the time were not injured.

There were several bullet holes in the front window and wall of the house and several shell casings were found outside the house.

People inside the home told police they did not know who or why someone would shoot into their home. There is currently no information on a suspect.

Investigators are scouring the neighborhood for surveillance cameras that might have captured something or for witnesses with additional information.
