A juvenile is a primary suspect in the shooting of a 7-year-old trick-or-treater in Chicago that left a girl in critical condition, a police spokesman said
Detectives also recovered a firearm that may be connected to the shooting, Chicago police chief communications officer Anthony Guglielmi said via Twitter."Criminal charges pending. Excellent work by detectives & prosecutors. We could have not gotten here without the help of the #LitfleVillage community," Guglielmi tweeted on Friday evening.The juvenile was taken in for questioning earlier Friday.The girl, dressed as a bumble bee, was out with her family around 5:30 p.m.
It's a 7-year-old girl that's trick-or-treating with her family out here and happens to get shot because a group of guys want to shoot at another male while there is a street full of kids trick-or-treating," Alioto said.Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson called the shooting"reprehensible" and those behind it"cowards" during a news conference Friday announcing historic lows in the number of homicides and shootings during October in the city.
