Two boys, ages 9 and 12, were among multiple people shot in a fatal attack outside a Washington D.C. apartment complex Wednesday night. 

The shooters got out of a vehicle and opened fire from across the street, hitting six people total, Metropolitan Police Chief Pamela Smith said at a press conference Wednesday evening.

Police said they believe two shooters were involved.

Responding police officers found one man dead. A woman, a 9-year-old boy, and two other men were also located in the area suffering from gunshot wounds. 

Smith added that a 12-year-old boy was brought to a local hospital with a gunshot wound. Smith said he was determined to be a victim of the shooting.

Police said they are looking for a light blue Toyota sedan with UNK tags, no front tags, dark tints and black rims.
