HARTFORD A 3-year-old boy was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting in the city’s north end Saturday afternoon, hours before a second shooting took the life of a 17-year-old in a bloody afternoon in the state’s capitol city.
Police say so far they do not believe the two incidents are connected. City leaders expressed grief and outrage at the violence during a press conference later that afternoon, and pleaded for witnesses to cooperate with investigators.
“Our whole city’s heart breaks for this child and for his family,” Mayor Luke Bronin said during a press conference that evening. “This is a crime that wounds a community, and we are grieving with the family of this little boy.”
