Teenager shot near Wanskuck housing project 01:00 AM EDT on Tuesday, September 13, 2005
PROVIDENCE -- A 16-year-old girl was shot in the right buttock shortly before 2:30 a.m. Sunday near the Chad Brown housing project, according to the police.The girl and a 16-year-old, female friend said they had been at the Living Room nightclub earlier in the night, and that fights had occurred involving young people from the East Side.
An unidentified male companion said that "East Side kids" probably fired the shots, according to a police report.
Teenagers from the East Side and the South Side brawled in the streets at several locations in Providence last week, but the police said there does not appear to be any connection between those brawls and the shooting.
Sunday morning, the police went to the vicinity of June and Suffolk streets in Wanskuck, near the Chad Brown housing project, where they found three shell casings left behind.
Officers interviewed the 16-year-old victim, who was shot once, at Hasbro Children's Hospital. She said she had been shot while sitting in the male companion's car.
Shot in the BUTTOCKS, OUCH, but of course there is NO CONNECTION!!!!
