PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Philadelphia police are investigating after a shooting injured two people, including a 4-year-old girl.
It happened around 9:40 p.m. Wednesday on the 2000 block of Clementine Street.
According to police, the child and a 24-year-old man were both standing in an open doorway when someone opened fire on the property.

The man was shot in the stomach and leg. He was taken to an area hospital in stable condition.
Police say roughly 15 shots were fired at the scene.
Both victims live at the home where they were shot, according to Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small.
"The home where both of these victims were standing when they were shot was also struck several times by gunfire. So it appears that the shooter or shooters were intentionally firing gunshots at this property," added Small.
No arrests have been made.
Police believe the suspect or suspects may have fled in a dark-colored vehicle.
