REVERE, MASS. (WHDH) - State police were forced to shut down Revere Beach on Sunday night after separate shootings left several people wounded, officials said.
Troopers responding to a reported shooting at 123 Centennial Ave. around 7 p.m. found a 17-year-old girl who had suffered a gunshot wound to her lower body, according to state police. She was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital with a non-life-threatening injury.
A preliminary investigation suggests the girl was wounded while shots were being fired into a group of people during a fight and she was not the intended target.
Then, around 8 p.m., two victims were wounded in another shooting in the area of the bathhouse across from 63 Revere Beach Boulevard. A 51-year-old woman suffered gunshot wounds to her legs and was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital and a 17-year-old boy who was grazed by a gunshot declined to go to the hospital.
