Savannah-Chatham police are investigating a shooting on Savannah’s southside that injured a 13-year-old Pooler boy early Saturday morning.
Southside Precinct patrol officers responded to a shots fired call from Deerfield Road and discovered the boy had injuries to his shoulder and jaw after shots were fired into his grandmother’s house, said police spokesman Julian Miller. The boy had been asleep on a sofa about the time of the 2:13 a.m shooting. Miller said the boy's injuries were not considered life-threatening.
Patrol, criminal investigators and forensics officers spent most of the night seeking clues in to the shooting.
