A Saturday afternoon shooting in a Hartford, Connecticut, residential neighborhood has resulted in one fatality and left three individuals, including a 17-year-old female, fighting for their lives. The incident, which authorities are characterizing as a targeted attack, occurred at an apartment complex on Maple Avenue.
Law enforcement officials, speaking at a press conference, confirmed that the shooting took place at a location where they were executing a search warrant.
