PHILADELPHIA (AP) - A woman was shot and wounded while sitting in a parked car with her two children when gunfire erupted on a Philadelphia street, authorities said.
The shooting happened around 11:30 p.m. Thursday. It wasn’t clear what prompted the gunfire, but authorities believe the two shooters were targeting someone who was standing at a nearby street corner.
At least six shots hit the woman’s car, authorities said, and at least one struck her in the left side of her chest. The woman’s 14-year-old daughter and 8-year-old son were not injured.
The wounded woman drove to a hospital and was being treated for her injuries, which were not considered life-threatening. Her name has not been released.
No other injuries were reported in the shooting, and no arrests have been made.
