A 5-year-old girl was critically wounded Tuesday night in a drive-by shooting that targeted a southwest Fort Worth home, officials say.

The girl was shot in the living room of the home in the 3400 block of Wayland Drive, about a half-mile from Interstate 20 off McCart Avenue. Her brother called police to report her injuries shortly before 9:15 p.m. Tuesday, according to call logs.

First responders took the girl to Cook Children's Medical Center in critical condition, Fort Worth police spokesman Todd Wadlington said. The Fort Worth Police Department's crimes against children unit will investigate, he said.
