3:11pm–#Bridgeport CT–This is an update on an earlier post of a shooting on Norman Street.   Police received a call a group of teens arguing on Norman Street near Atwater Steet.  Soon, shots were fired from a white car.  Initial reports said that the driver of the car accidentally shot the passenger in his car.  Police Chief AJ Perez said the victim, a sixteen-year-old Central High School student was hit in by bullet fragments that entered his shoulder and frontal lobe.  The chief said the shooting started after an argument with other teens in the area.  Police responding to the shooting did not find a victim, but a short time later St. Vincent’s Hospital called that they had a gunshot victim.  He was dropped off in a private vehicle.  The teen’s condition is listed as fair.

 

Police were called back to the area when a homeowner found bullet holes in their home.   Again police were called back to the area for an emotionally unstable person, which was not related to this case.
