One person was struck by gunfire on Friday afternoon in the Excelsior after a drive-by shooting.

In the incident, which took place at 3:14pm near the intersection of Persia Avenue and Dublin Street, four males of unknown age in an unknown vehicle opened fire on a car in front of them that was driven by two males, both 19 years old.

One of the intended targets suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds, and his companion drove him to a hospital for treatment.
