A 16-year-old was shot in his left leg last week while working in his garage, according to Marion Police Department Capt. Stephen Dorsey.
The incident happened last Thursday at around 4:16 p.m. in the 400 block of S. Park Avenue.
The teen reported he was working in his garage when a black male, wearing a black hoodie and with a stocky build of around 200 pounds, walked into the garage and shot him below the knee, Dorsey said.
The suspect then fled on foot down an alleyway.
The victim’s injury is non-lift threatening and the investigation is still active.
