15-Year-Old Girl Shot Dead In Playground Structure Of Southern California Park

OCEANSIDE (AP) — Police say a 15-year-old girl was shot and killed at a San Diego County park.

Oceanside police spokesman Ryan Keim says officers responded to calls about gunshots at Joe Balderrama Park in Oceanside shortly after 2:30 a.m. Saturday.

Keim says officers found the teenager suffering from at least one gunshot wound in a playground structure. He says they tried to save her life but that she died at the scene.

Keim says the preliminary investigation shows that the attack was not random but declined to explain why.

No arrests have been made. Police are looking for witnesses.

The girl's name was not released.
