Utica Police are renewing their call for information in connection with a recent shooting incident that resulted in a 12-year-old getting hit in the face by a stray bullet.

Officers were on the scene investigating the incident when they were notified of a separate shooting victim, a man who'd been shot multiple times, and was located at the corner of Sunset and Oswego Streets, police said. Police believe the 29-year-old man was near the scene of the vigil when he was shot, however, when asked for information police said he was "extremely uncooperative", even telling officers at one point the he'd been shot by Santa Claus.

Meanwhile, UPD have also shared a link to a fundraising page to help pay for the young boy's ongoing medical care. You can access that here.
