The shooting happened down the street from Shoop Academy at 11140 S. Bishop St. At the scene, dozens of evidence markers covered the sidewalk near the mouth of an alley.

A resident who has lived in the area for the past three years described the block as "quiet" with "not too much going on."

There was no one in custody.
