Twelve people were shot in two separate shootings over the weekend, one on the east coast and one on the west coast.

Police in New York say six people were shot around 3 a.m. on Sunday in the Pine Hills neighborhood of Albany. 

Officers responded to clear a large crowd on Hudson Avenue between Quail and Ontario Streets. Individuals in the crowd were fighting with each other and began to throw glass bottles at officers attempting to break up the fights and clear the street, a news release says.

Officers heard shots being fired over on Hamilton Street near Ontario Street while clearing the group. When they responded to the scene, officers located evidence consistent with gunshots and also discovered the following five victims who sustained gunshot wounds to various parts of the body including ankles, abdomens, shoulders, and backs. The victims' ages ranged from 19 to 29.

She was also taken to Albany Medical Center with what appear to be non-life threatening injuries.

The victims were four men and two women, all in their 20s. 

A handgun was recovered on the scene, authorities said.
