A 14-year-old girl was in critical condition after being shot during an argument Monday night in the Austin neighborhood on the West Side, Chicago police said.
Around 8:15 p.m., officers responded to a call of a person shot in the first block of North Lorel Avenue and found a 14-year-old girl with a gunshot wound to the buttocks. She was taken to Stroger Hospital where she was listed in critical condition, police said.
A witness at the scene said the girl was shot after an argument among several people. A 50-year-old woman who suffered a stab wound to the left shoulder at the scene was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital where she was listed in good condition, police said.
