PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - Providence police say a 20-year-old man who was shot along with his sister while sitting in a car Wednesday was the target of that shooting.
Davon Taylor, who was driving the car, was killed in the shooting on Wendell Street. His sister, 15-year-old Destiny, was wounded and is in serious condition at Hasbro Children’s Hospital.

Police have not said why Taylor was targeted.
