Two shootings in Fort Worth in the early morning hours on Tuesday left two injured.

Police said that they were called to a shooting at an apartment complex located in the 8000 block of West Elizabeth Lane at about 1 a.m. on July 12. Someone had told officers that three people were injured in the shooting.

Upon arrival, responding officers found only one person who had been shot. The victim was hit in the leg and was transferred to a hospital for treatment.

“It appears an unknown vehicle drove through the apartment complex lot and shot at the victim and fled the scene,” a Fort Worth PD spokesperson said, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Another shooting occurred later that morning, around 3:30 a.m. Police were told that a juvenile arrived at the Burleson Baylor Scott & White Emergency Hospital with gunshot wounds.

According to a police call log, the 14-year-old’s stepmother brought him to the hospital in a private vehicle.

He was treated for his injuries and later told police that he was shot while he was with a friend at the Park at Sycamore Apartments located at 3801 Sycamore School Road.

Fort Worth police say their investigations into the two July 12 shootings are ongoing as they have not made any arrests.
