The suspects ''fired several shots at them with a high-powered weapon,''

A 22-year-old man sitting in a car with his girlfriend and 2-month-old baby was shot in the neck in a drive-by Tuesday, police said.A car, possibly a gold Saturn, with several men inside drove up to the couple at Northwest Second Avenue and 53rd Street.
One man got out and opened fire just before 3 p.m.
The suspects ''fired several shots at them with a high-powered weapon,'' said Napier Velazquez, a department spokesman.The victim put the car in reverse out of the area and then ran inside the nearby Chef Creole restaurant at 200 Northwest 54th St., where people called 911.The man was taken to Ryder Trauma Center in very critical condition, Velazquez said.''Given what happened, it's a miracle that the child and the girlfriend weren't hit,'' said Martha Carbana, a department spokeswoman.
Police did not have a description of the shooter or shooters and did not know a motive.
