July 16 – Boisvert said officers encountered a wrecked vehicle at the intersection of Maple Avenue and Benton Street that contained a passenger with multiple gunshot wounds. He said the injured man was taken to Hartford Hospital where he was in critical condition.
Meanwhile, other officers located a 17-year-old girl with gunshot wounds inside the apartment, Boisvert said. He noted that she was transported to Connecticut Children’s Medical Center where she was listed in critical condition.
Boisvert said officers were then dispatched moments later to the 100 block of Wethersfield Avenue after two men with gunshot wounds were dropped off. He said the two seriously injured men were taken to hospital in Hartford, where one of them later died.
Boisvert said investigators believe the shooting took place inside the Maple Avenue apartment.
“It is believed that shots were exchanged between mutual fighters and it was not a random act,” Boisvert said.
No arrests have been announced in connection with the shooting and police have not publicly identified any of the victims. The major crime and crime scene divisions of the police department are investigating.
