The victim was a 14-year-old boy, police said.
Family members told ABC11 that the teen was Tavorje Kelly, a student at Eastern Wayne Middle School.
He was one of five siblings and his grandmother said he loved to play basketball.
Police responded to the Tanglewood Mobile Home Park shortly after 4 a.m. When officers arrived they found the teen shot inside the home. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
it's unclear whether he was the intended target of this shooting as four other people reportedly lived in the home.
