As many as 14 people, including a 3-year-old child, were wounded in a drive-by shooting in Chicago on Monday night, the police said. There were no immediate reports of fatalities.
The injuries ranged from critical to non-life-threatening, Superintendent David Brown of the Chicago police told reporters late Monday. One person was struck by a vehicle at the scene, he said.
Superintendent Brown said the shooting had occurred at about 9:30 p.m. at the intersection of California Avenue and Polk Street. He said a preliminary investigation showed that there had been one car but at least two shooters.
No suspect or motive had been identified, he added.
A CBS affiliate in Chicago reported that the shooting, on the city’s West Side, prompted the authorities to call for at least 10 ambulances.
This is a developing story.
