PALMER, Mass. (WWLP) - Palmer Police are looking for a Springfield man in a drive-by shooting.

It happened about 7:30 on Thursday night on Beacon Drive near Wright Street.

Palmer Police Sgt. Chris Clark told 22News the suspect was in a car when he fired a pellet gun at a man walking on the street.

Sgt. Burns said he missed the man and then shot into the victim's car, breaking two windows.

No one was injured.

GOD MY TOWN IS SO LAME.

for a second there I expected this to be another one of those "X people died today at Y" topics

Oh boohoo. You live in a perfectly calm city where rape and death doesn't occur. Oh you poor thing.

Seriously.

In Phoenix a cop dies almost every month.

The sad part is that it's always blamed on mexicans.
