Elk Grove police Spokesman Christopher Trim reported Saturday that detectives were investigating the shooting of a 15-year-old at a June 8 graduation party in the 9500 block of Tarbert Way.
Trim said the teenager is in stable condition as of Saturday.
According to a press release from Trim, police were called to the party around 11:51 p.m. and while en route, dispatchers received more phone calls about shots being fired.
When officers arrived on scene, a 15-year-old male was found suffering from several gunshot wounds to the upper torso. He was transorted to an unnamed area hospital where Trim said he was in stable condition.
Witnesses at the scene told officers that a verbal altercation developed between groups at the party. The incident escalated to a physical fight, soon after a suspect shot the victim, Trim said.
A more detailed article on the incident will be in Wednesday's print edition of the Citizen.
