Officials say a lone shooter targeted people on the street 'seemingly at random' during a mass shooting in which five people were killed and two children were injured in Philadelphia's Kingsessing neighborhood on Monday night.
Shortly before Kenney's address, officials identified those killed in this incident as four residents of the city's Kingsessing neighborhood -- along with a teen boy with no known address.
A 2-year-old boy was also shot four times in the legs while a 13-year-old boy was shot twice in the legs. They are both in stable condition.The shooting spree began Monday around 8:30 p.m. on 56th and Chester streets in the city's Kingsessing neighborhood, investigators said. Outlaw could not provide many details as the investigation is ongoing, but she said that police do not believe any of the victims knew their killer and they believe Carriker acted alone.
The shooter fired at a car with a 33-year-old mother and her twin two-year-old children inside. One of the toddlers was shot four times in the legs while the other toddler's eyes were injured by glass broken during the shooting, according to investigators. The mother was also injured by glass. All three victims are in stable condition, said Ransom.
