A preliminary investigation revealed that the victims had been shot at a home in the 2000 block of Frontier Court.
Officials say the adult male and the 6-year-old victim remain in the hospital in critical condition.
State's Attorney Aisha Braveboy told FOX 5 the shootings are "absolutely devastating" and "nonsense."
"We are working very closely with our police department," she said. "We look forward to figuring out who the suspect or suspects are, and we will hold them accountable."
Detectives do not believe this was a random shooting, however, they say the young girl was not the intended target.
