One killed, one injured in shooting at Manchester parking lot gathering

One person was killed and another injured early Sunday morning after a shooting at a large gathering in a Manchester parking lot, according to Connecticut State Police.

Troopers from state police barracks Troop H, which is in Hartford, received a report of a shooting at about 2 a.m. Sunday. They responded to the commuter lot off Buckland Street, police said, and learned that there were two gunshot victims.

The two victims were taken to area hospitals, police said. However, one of the victims — 20-year-old Massachusetts resident Jennifer Hicks — died from her injuries.

State police said there were between 100 and 200 people at the lot at the time of the shooting.
