NEW HAVEN — Police in New Haven are investigating a series of late-night shootings in The Hill neighborhood after reports of gunfire were confirmed by ballistic evidence found at the scene.
Authorities were first alerted to the incident at around 9:30 p.m. on Dec. 10 when shots were fired near the intersection of Carlisle Street and Cedar Street.
New Haven Police Department (NHPD) officers responded swiftly but found no gunshot wound victims upon arrival.
