TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) - For the second time in less than 24 hours, shots rang out at the Lake Bradford Estates in Leon County.

Concerned neighbors called the WCTV newsroom around 9:30 Saturday night only minutes after hearing a flurry of gunshots. The neighbor reported hearing two different “caliber” guns and sent in photos of the scene, which show a cache of forensics markers on the ground in front of a home in the neighborhood.

A spokesperson with the Leon County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that deputies were on the scene investigating, but said it did not appear that anyone was injured.

The incident was the second time deputies had responded to the 2700 block of Cathedral Drive on Saturday. Around 1:30 a.m., a 13-year-old girl was shot through the hand. The teen was taken to the hospital, treated and released. The Sheriff’s Office was investigating the incident as an accidental shooting, said Public Information Office Angela Greene-Sherrod.
