OMAHA, Neb. -- Omaha Police said security guards were escorting a group of unruly youth from the Hope Center for Kids Tuesday night when gunshots rang out. 

The incident was reported just before 9 p.m. 

An off-duty officer reported numerous gunshots in front of the building at 20th and Burdette.

Investigators determined that a passenger in a white Sedan fired into the crowd that was being escorted out. 

Two security guards returned fire before the car left.

The Sedan ended up at Children's Hospital where a 14-year-old girl in the car was treated for a graze wound. 

It wasn't immediately clear who fired the shot that grazed her.

No one was arrested as of Wednesday morning.
