CHICAGO - A 15-year-old girl is in critical condition after being shot Monday while walking her dog on Chicago’s South Side.
The teen was shot about 3:40 p.m. in front of a store in the 6100 block of South King Drive in the Washington Park neighborhood.
She was walking her dog when an unknown man on foot fired shots, striking her in the arm and chest, police said. The girl made her way down the street before collapsing.
She was transported to Comer Children's Hospital in critical condition.
It is unsure if the victim was the intended target, police said.
Detectives are still investigating as nobody is in custody.
The shooting comes after a violent weekend in the city saw 48 people shot, including a 2-year-old girl and a 13-year-old boy. At least six of those wounded over the weekend have died.
The number of people shot was almost double what it was last weekend, when five people were killed and 21 others hurt in gun violence across the city.
