BAMBERG, S.C. (WRDW) -- Police in the City of Bamberg are investigating after a child was injured in what they say was a drug deal gone wrong.

Police Chief George Morris says the child was inside the house at 444 Elm Street Monday night.

They say someone fired a shot back into the house after unidentified individuals left the home.

It’s unclear yet if the child was grazed by the bullet or a fragment of a piece of flying glass, but she suffered a minor injury to the side of her head.

She was transported to the hospital, treated and released.

The investigation is continuing.
