The gunfire also hit a man and a woman, who both suffered wounds to their lower extremities, police said. They both were being treated at a hospital for injures that were not life-threatening.

The name of the child was being withheld pending positive identification and family notifications. The names of the adults were also not immediately released. The relationship between the three shooting victims was not immediately clear.

No arrests have been made and police do not have a suspect description. Detectives are asking the public for help in identifying the dark-colored pickup truck, which they believe is a Dodge Ram model.
