FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- A man is recovering after he was shot twice in a drive-by shooting in Southeast Fresno.

The shooting happened in front of a home on Eugenia and Price Avenues at around 1 a.m.

Police say the man was outside with his family when a dark-colored SUV drove by, and someone fired several shots from inside the vehicle.

The victim was hit twice in the leg and hospitalized.
