VINELAND – A 10-year-old girl was fatally wounded late Sunday night in what authorities believe was a drive-by shooting, according to the Cumberland County Prosecutor’s Office.
Prosecutor Jennifer Webb-McRae in a statement Monday afternoon said the child was shot at a home in the 700 block of West Earl Drive.
City police were sent at about 11:17 p.m. Sunday to Inspira Medical Center Vineland for a report of a gunshot victim.
“Investigators are working to determine who was the intended target of the shooting,” Webb-McRae stated. “This is an active, ongoing investigation.”
The office is asking residents to share any home camera video taken between 9:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. Sunday if they live on West or East Earl Drive, at Park Towne Apartments, or on Diane Court, Mary Court, and Shirley Court.
