A teenager was shot and wounded late Friday in Northeast Washington, a little more than a mile from the scene of Tuesday's fatal shootings.
According to a preliminary report, the youth wounded Friday night, who was believed to be about 16, was conscious and breathing after the shooting, which occurred shortly before midnight near Kenilworth Avenue NE in the Deanwood area.
Authorities have attributed Tuesday's deadly outbreak of gunfire on Clay Terrace NE to rivalries between neighborhood groups. A 15-year-old and an 18-year-old were killed and three others, about the same ages, were wounded in that incident.
There was no indication early Saturday of any connection between Tuesday's shootings and Friday night's shooting.
No motive for the Friday shooting could be immediately learned.
