A juvenile male is dead and another injured after they were shot multiple times in the Chester Creek Trail area near Sullivan Arena.

Police received a report of shots fired in the area shortly before 6:30 p.m. Sunday, followed by a phone call from one of the boys telling police they'd been shot. Officers searching the woods located the two boys far off the trail system.

Both were shot multiple times. One victim was found dead, and the other was transported to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries.
