A 16-year-old was killed and two others were wounded in a shooting Thursday evening in Pleasant Grove, Dallas police say.
Officers responded about 7 p.m. to reports of a shooting at the intersection of North Masters Drive and Carolina Oaks Drive.
According to police, a group of people were fighting when a gunman opened fire, striking three people.
Dallas Fire-Rescue personnel responded and took a 16-year-old to the hospital, where they died, police said. The teen’s name was not released because of their age.
Two other unidentified people were taken to hospitals. One was shot in the foot, police said, and the other suffered unspecified “minor injuries.”
No additional information about the shooting or potential suspects was immediately available.
