The Hartford Police Department is investigating a shooting that left a 33-year-old Hartford man dead and sent three other people to the hospital on Monday night.
Hartford Police Lt. Aaron Boisvert said officers were called to the intersection of Bedford Street and Mather Street shortly after 7 p.m. after multiple rounds activated ShotSpotter.
Police said it appeared to be a drive-by shooting with multiple shooters all inside of the car.
“The group is congregated. The vehicle comes up, slows, stops at some point, multiple people get out and begin firing," Boisvert said.
