An 11-year-old boy is recovering after being shot at an apartment in Hartford early Saturday morning.

Officers say they responded to 47 Bedford Street shortly after 1 a.m. after Shot Spotter registered two shots fired. While there, police found an 11-year-old boy who was shot in the arm.

The boy was transported to Saint Francis Hospital where he was listed in stable condition with non-life threatening injuries, police say.
