A 9-year-old boy was fatally shot inside a residence on the city's Far South Side Saturday evening, according to officials.
Officials said the boy was shot in the 9400 block of South Wallace Street shortly after 6:30 p.m. and went into traumatic arrest.
The boy was transported to Comer Children's Hospital in critical condition, where he later succumbed to his injuries.
Police said in a press conference Sunday evening that a preliminary investigation determined there were multiple family members inside the home at the time of the shooting, and that the shooting occurred inside the home.
Officials added that a weapon has not been recovered thus far, and that interviews are being conducted as the investigation proceeds.
The shooting came just hours after a teen was killed and three other teens were wounded in a shooting in Washington Park.
