A man was lying in his bed inside his near south side home early today when he became a victim of a drive by shooting, News Radio 1200 WOAI reports.
Police say somebody in a passing car fired at least twenty shots into a home in the 600 block of West Mitchell, which is just southwest of downtown, about 1AM today.
At least two of the slugs tore through the front wall of the house and hit the victim, a man in his twenties, as he lay in bed.
He was rushed to the hospital in critical condition.
Detectives say they don't have any witnesses, and few clues on who fired the shots, and why.
