WATCH HEREThere was no one in custody Monday and Area Three Detectives are investigating.
The incident comes just four days after a 13-year-old boy was shot on a CTA Red Line train car near the Garfield station around 8:30 p.m. on April 16, and a little over a week after a 61-year-old doorman was shot and killed by a CTA worker near the UIC Blue Line station on April 12.
The CTA has not yet responded to NBC 5’s request for comment regarding the shooting. However, in a statement from the CTA after the Blue Line shooting, the organization said, "the CTA takes seriously any act of violence that occurs on our system.”
