WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (WGHP) — A third person has been shot and killed in Winston-Salem in less than a week.

The man was reportedly shot in the drive-thru. This is a developing story.

A young girl was fatally shot on Sunday, and a man was killed in a shooting on Thursday in Winston-Salem.

Enedy Penaloza Morales, 12, died in the hospital after she was hit by a stray bullet in Weston Park on Sunday afternoon.

Police are calling on anyone who knows anything to come forward to help bring the responsible person to justice.

Kane Bowen, 30, was hit by a bullet and died early Thursday inside the Burke Street Pub where Makenzi Dalton was also shot and survived.

Officers say that William Drake, 74, fired into the pub around 1 a.m. and hit Bowen.

He was charged with general murder, discharging a firearm into occupied property, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and assault with a deadly weapon.
