D.C. police responded to three shootings within two hours across the city Friday, all within the span of two hours.

In the first incident, two teens shot a worker in the head at a construction site at 49th and East Capitol streets, SE, severely injuring him shortly after 2:30 p.m.

A Hispanic male construction worker was approached by two teenagers, one of whom is believed to be the shooter.

The victim was taken to Washington Hospital Center's Medstar in critical condition. He is in grave condition on life support. Police are searching for the two teens who fled the area after the shooting. 

In another incident on the 1200 block of 18th Place NW shortly after 4 p.m., a male was shot a number of times. He was taken to an area hospital. His condition was not released.

The third shooting, in the 1600 block of E Street NE at 4:30 p.m., left a 7-year-old girl injured. She was apparently shot in the arm and suffered non-life threatening injuries. A total of 50 shots were fired between four masked gunmen and another gunman on the opposite end of the street. All of the incident happened right under a D.C. police surveillance camera.

None of the gunmen in any case has been arrested.
