Columbus police say a shooting Friday night at a South Linden-area home was an accident.

Police responded to the 900 block of East 21st Avenue between Lexington and Jefferson Avenues around 7:30 Friday evening.

When they arrived, officers found two victims - a teenage girl, and Ime Obokette. The girl was struck in her right calf area. Obokette was struck in the left buttock and hip area.

Police say both victims were taken to hospitals in stable condition.

Detectives tell 10TV that both victims say someone else had a gun and it accidentally went off - and only one shot was fired.

Police are still looking for that person.
