A 16-year-old was shot on the CTA Red Line in Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s (D) Chicago Sunday around 2 a.m.
CBS News reported the 16-year-old “was shot in the ear and eye” and hospitalized in serious condition.
A shell casing and blood were found in the train car but the 16-year-old victim could not provide any details on the shooter, CWB Chicago noted. However, other passengers were able to provide a description of the suspect.
Thereafter, officers found a gun “near the entrance to Ping Tom Memorial Park at 19th and Wells” and a suspect matching passengers’ description was soon arrested.
Breitbart News pointed out that two boys — ages 14 and 15 — were shot dead Friday afternoon outside Chicago’s Benito Juarez High School on Friday around 2:30 p.m.
Both victims were shot in the head.
Two other victims, a 15-year-old girl and a 15-year-old boy, were shot and wounded and are in good condition.
