Authorities in West Palm Beach, Florida believe that the fatal shooting of a 17-year-old boy was not a random act.
The juvenile and a 16-year-old boy were shot in the parking lot of an apartment building in the 5100 block of Carribean Boulevard shortly after 9:45 p.m. Friday.
Witnesses reported seeing the older teen running to the building’s front door after he sustained mortal gunshot wounds and collapsed.
He and the second victim were rushed to a hospital by people but the 17-year-old boy couldn’t be saved.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to help investigators identify a suspect by calling Detective Aaron Sam at 561-822-1675 or Crime Stoppers at 800-458-TIPS (8477).
