Utica, N.Y. - Utica Police are investigating two separate shootings almost two hours apart Saturday afternoon. One of them is fatal, the second has landed a man in grave condition.
Police say they were called to 100 Rutger St. around 1:45 Saturday afternoon for the report of shots fired.
One male victim was found shot and died from his wounds.
The increase in violence in the City of Utica is nothing new, but over the holiday weekend it reached a new level of concern. A 16-year-old girl was struck by gunfire following a shooting in the city and is now sedated following surgery.
Utica Police first reported that officers were called to the intersection of Schuyler Street and Knox Street for a shooting investigation on Monday at around 2PM. Officials say when they arrived on scene they located a young girl who had suffered a gunshot wound to her chest.
The young girl, only 16-year-old, was transported immediately to St. Elizabeth Hospital to undergo emergency surgery. Police announced just after 5:30PM Monday that she was out of surgery and sedated. Officials believe a more comprehensive idea of her condition will be known later today.
