Rochester Police are concerned about the increase in youth violence.
Five teens were wounded in two shootings Tuesday night
Captain Frank Umbrino says the two drive-by-shootings Tuesday night occurred about 45 minutes apart but it's still too early to know if they were connected.
Data released by the RPD shows 60 people 18-and-under have been shot this year, the highest number in the last decade, with the 10-year-average being 20 per year.
The RPD says the most homicides in a single year in Rochester history is 69, thus far, there have been 68 homicides in 2021.
