2 Boys Wounded In Pasadena Drive-By Shooting

PASADENA (CBSLA.com) — Two boys are recovering from non-life-threatening wounds Wednesday after being hit in a drive-by shooting in Pasadena.

The shooting happened near McGrew Alley about 5:45 p.m. Tuesday, Pasadena police Lt. John Luna said.

"Three juveniles were walking towards the alley when a car pulled up and a passenger in the front seat opened fire out of the window at the three victims," Luna said. "Two of the victims suffered gunshot wounds and the third person escaped injury."

Luna said another juvenile was sitting in a nearby car that was struck by some of the rounds and suffered a minor scrape that was treated at the scene.

One of the boys shot on the street suffered wounds to his hand, thigh and buttocks, Luna said, and the other was shot in the left ankle. Both were taken to a local hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening wounds and are stable.

The suspects, men in their 20s or 30s, fled in a dark vehicle westbound on Parke Street, Luna said.

Anyone with information about the shooting can call the Pasadena police at (626) 744-4241.
