Evanston police are asking the public for help as they try to identify two men who allegedly shot a 17-year-old boy last week in an attack that was caught on surveillance cameras.
The teen was shot around 5:15 p.m. Aug. 10 in the 1800 block of Hartrey Avenue, police said. He was treated and released from an area hospital, according to police Cmdr. Jay Parrot.
Detectives investigating the shooting said persons of interest have been identified in the shooting, which is believed to have been gang-related.
Police said witnesses and the victim have been uncooperative. They released the footage in hopes of finding a “cooperative witness.”
Police are asking anyone with information regarding the shooting to call the Evanston Police Department at (847)866-5000.
