Teenager injured in accidental shooting in Phoenix, police say

PHOENIXA teenager was shot and killed early Thursday morning in an accidental shooting in Phoenix.

Phoenix Police say officers responded just after 2 a.m. on Nov. 14 to 7th Avenue and Baseline Road for reports of a person shot.

When officers arrived at the scene, they found a teenager with a gunshot wound. The boy was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

The detectives also responded to investigate reports of a “robbery gone wrong,” but police say it was later determined the teenager and some of his friends were playing with a gun when it went off.

The area was closed due to the investigation but has since reopened.
