The Kennewick police continue investigating a drive-by shooting in the 700 block of East Fifth Avenue. The shooting occurred at 2 a.m. on Dec. 25.

Four homes and several parked cars were struck by gunfire and police have found eight spent .40 caliber casings so far, stretching the length of the block, said Sgt. Ken Lattin on Wednesday.
