A 17-year-old is charged in a shooting that injured one person early Wednesday in Allentown.
Officers were called about 5 a.m. to the Red Roof Inn at 2650 Moravian Ave. for a report of a shooting, city police said in a news release. Not long after, someone suffering from a gunshot wound showed up at a nearby hospital.
The department said the injury is not life-threatening.
Investigators determined there was a “disturbance” in one of the motel rooms before the shooting. A gun was recovered, and a 17-year-old boy from Allentown is charged with aggravated assault, prohibited possession of a firearm, carrying a firearm by a minor and carrying a firearm without a license.
