Earlier Sunday, police say, a teen boy suffered serious injuries after being shot in a car.

And several hours after that, just before 8 a.m., a man was badly injured after being shot near a restaurant.
There were two other incidents of shots fired making it ten incidents of gunfire this weekend but police say those two are not considered shootings as no one was injured.
Police haven’t said whether any of the shootings are connected.
