A 16-year-old and 19-year-old were killed Wednesday night in Lynn in the city’s second shooting in as many days, authorities said in a Thursday morning statement.

Essex County District Attorney Paul Tucker and Lynn Police Chief Christopher Reddy said police responded to reports of shots fired near 10 Camden Street in Lynn just before 10:30 p.m. Wednesday.

Police found two males with gunshot wounds who were transported to North Shore Medical Center. The 16-year-old was pronounced dead in the emergency room and the 19-year-old “succumbed to his injuries at the hospital,” authorities said.

“Effects of gun violence are devastating especially when young people are involved and losing their lives. Massachusetts State Police Detectives assigned to my office, the Lynn Police, and Lynn officials are committed to exhausting every possible resource in an effort to interrupt this pattern of senseless violence,” Tucker said in a statement.

Lynn Mayor Jared Nicholson said the city offered its condolences to the families of the two victims in the Wednesday night shooting and planned to offer support to the school communities grieving the losses.

“We appreciate our law enforcement team for all their intensive efforts over the last two days,” Nicholson said in a statement. “This violence is devastating, infuriating, and utterly unacceptable. We will respond with increased police presence as needed and renewed urgency and clarity in our efforts for peace, justice, and a safer community.”

Authorities have not publicly identified a suspect nor announced any arrests.

The shooting followed a Tuesday evening shooting at a Pizza Hut at 39 State Street that left three unidentified individuals with gunshot wounds, police said. The victims were transported to Massachusetts General Hospital and “at this time appear to be in stable condition,” authorities said.

Reddy said the attacks appeared “targeted” and asked those with information to call investigators at (781) 477-3190

“The Lynn Police Department and the Massachusetts State Police have committed significant resources to these investigations and will continue to do so until the offenders are held accountable,” Reddy said in a statement.
