A 16-year-old boy was shot Monday morning while outside in the 1400 block of West University Drive in Mesa, police said.
The Mesa Police Department received a call about 5 a.m. from the boy’s mother who told authorities her son was shot in the leg and needed help. The teen was taken to a hospital. His injury does not appear t be life threatening, police said.
“The victim initially said that he was walking out on University with another underage male when a car drove by and fired three to four rounds, striking him in the leg,” police stated in a release.
“The victim then said that it occurred inside the apartment complex, not on the street. The underage male who was walking with the victim could not provide any information.”
There were no suspects or vehicle description as of late Monday morning.
