DETROIT (WWJ) -- A 5-year-old girl and a man have been shot on Detroit's west side.
Detroit Police said it happened Tuesday night on Plainview Avenue, near West Chicago and Evergreen. Officers were on patrol when they heard gunshots, before ShotSpotter alerted them to the exact location.
Officers found shell casings at the scene, but no injured people.
While investigating, Detroit Police Deputy Chief Jacqueline Pritchett said officers heard word that a 5-year-old girl had been been shot in the leg and was taken to the hospital.
Pritchett told reporters she's fed up with these shootings involving kids in the city.
"This is becoming old. I'm really tried of coming to these things with these children being shot, with gunfire," Pritchett said. "You know, people who are gun owners, or have guns, should be living more cautious when they're using these guns. There's too many kids being shot for no reason."
Pritchett said a man showed up to the DPD's 6th Precinct reporting that he was also shot in that area.
There have been no arrests in this case, and no suspects have been named or described.
Police said they're still investigating the circumstances surrounding the shooting.
