Shooting in Ukrainian Village
A 12-year-old girl was wounded in a shooting that took place at around 11:00 PM last night in the 2500 block of West Division Street, located in the Ukrainian Village neighborhood.

The father, who drove his daughter to Ascension Saint Mary’s Hospital immediately after the incident, reported that his daughter was hit in the leg but is currently in good condition.
Details of the Incident
According to the father, a vehicle had passed him driving erratically shortly before the shooting. He is uncertain whether the shots were fired from the same car that had been following them or if the incident was related to road rage or another motive. No one is currently in custody in connection with this shooting.
