Police received a Shotspotter alert in the 600 block of Florida Avenue indicating that 18 shots had been fired around 10:50 p.m.

A woman inside suffered a grazing wound that was not considered life-threatening, according to police, and the 2-year-old girl suffered minor injuries from broken glass. Initially, however, the victims thought she had been shot, according to police.

Investigators say that they have not yet determined a motive in the shooting, and that there is no suspect information available at this time.
