Police say victim was not the target

A teenage girl on San Antonio's east side is recovering today after getting caught in the crossfire of what police believe was a gang attack.

The 15 year old victim was playing volleyball in the front yard of a home in the 1000 block of Nellina Street around 8 p.m. when police say shots were fired from a passing vehicle.

Police found dozens of shell casings in the area.  The girl was apparently hit by a stray shot.  Investigators say she was not the target of the attack.  She was rushed to the hospital but is expected to survive. 

The gunmen sped away.
