Shooting today at 61st and Kimbark

At approximately 3:30 p.m. today (Dec. 4), a 16-year-old
male was walking with his sister and other teens on 61st Street between
Kimbark and Kenwood. A beige sedan passed them and someone inside the
car fired several shots in their direction, one of which struck the
victim in the right leg. The victim was taken to the University of
Chicago Medical Center, where he is listed in good condition. Police
believe that this is the aftermath of an earlier fight that occurred
near the Hyde Park Academy involving the victim's older brother. The
police are investigating.
