A 15-year-old boy was shot and killed Friday evening in the Roseland neighborhood on the South Side, police said.
About 5:10 p.m., the boy was shot in the head, chest and abdomen in the 11400 block of South Stewart Street, according to Chicago Police.
The shooter fired from a gray-colored Pontiac as it drove by the boy who was standing outside, police said.
He was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead. The Cook County medical examiner’s office could not immediately provide information on the fatality.
Crime scene tape was up about 7 p.m. and several squad cars were parked on the block. Shell casings were strewn about the street about a half block from Haley Elementary Academy.
No one was in custody Friday evening as Area South detectives investigated. Additional information about the shooting was not immediately available.
