According to police, officers arrived to find the boy wounded in the street, shot twice in the leg. Officers applied a tourniquet until EMS arrived and they took him to an area hospital.

SAPD said the boy lives in the area and was uncooperative with police, but found out from neighbors that the shooter may have been in an older model gray Chrysler. They are unsure if the shooter was in the car when he fired or if he got out of the vehicle when the crime was committed.

Officers say they are still trying to get information, but do believe they have at least one piece of surveillance video.

So far, no arrests have been made in the case. The investigation is ongoing, police said.
