YORK, Pa. (WHTM) — York Police say a string of recent shootings are unrelated to one another.
The latest happened Thursday morning around 3 a.m. at Newberry and Clark Streets. Someone shot a 59-year-old man during an attempted robbery.

Lieutenant Lentz said another shooting last, night involving a woman who shot herself in the leg, was accidental
