Male victim hit by glass shards during Bridgeport shooting

BRIDGEPORT — Detectives continue to investigate after an early morning shooting left one male victim wounded by glass shards Saturday, police said.

It was around 1:20 a.m. when 13 gunshots rang out in the area of Reservoir and Wilkins avenues. The gunfire was picked up by the city's Shotspotter system.
