WILKES-BARRE, Pa. One person was killed in a shooting in Wilkes-Barre Thursday night.
Police were called to the 200 block of South Washington Street around 10:30 p.m. after shots rang out.
The district attorney says someone living in a second-floor apartment shot and killed the victim.
Officials have not said if the two knew each other or what led to the gunfire.
No names have been released.
The district attorney says more information will be released Friday.
Early Friday morning, Newswatch 16 mistakenly said the shooting happened in a group home. The group home is the other half of the building, not where the shooting happened. We apologize for the error.
