A 17-year-old arrived at a Madison hospital with a gunshot wound Wednesday afternoon, apparently in connection with a shooting in the city’s southwest, Madison police said.
Officers were called to the area of Freeport and Reetz roads around 1.20pm after witnesses reported seeing someone fire from their sunroof at another car, police said.
Shortly after, a 17-year-old boy presented to hospital with a gunshot wound. Police did not say if the two incidents were related, although they did find two spent shell casings at the intersection.
Police are also investigating a possible connection to five minors arrested at a movie theater on Wednesday night, Deputy Chief Brian Austin said. The investigation is ongoing.
