Two shootings in Lynnwood send teens to hospital

A second shooting happened in the same area of Lynnwood this week, sending two more teenagers in the hospital.

Police are looking for the person who opened fire on Spruce Park just after 9 p.m. Thursday. Two teenage boys suffered life-threatening injuries after being hit.

The park is just a few blocks away from where a shooting on Wednesday took place.

The Snohomish County Sheriff's Office says a group of teens was walking along the street when someone in a car shot them. Those victims are expected to survive their injuries.

No word yet if the two shootings are connected, but investigators believe Wednesday's shooting was gang related.
