CHICAGO — Four teens were shot, two fatally, Friday afternoon outside Benito Juarez High School in Pilsen, officials said.
About 2:45 p.m., someone fired shots outside the school, 2150 S. Laflin St., as classes were letting out for the day. Three boys and one girl were hit outside the school, and all four were taken to Stroger Hospital, fire department officials said.
Two boys, ages 14 and 15, both were shot in the head and died at the hospital, police said. A 15-year-old boy was wounded in his thigh and shoulder, and a 15-year-old girl was grazed in her thigh, police said. Both teens were hospitalized in good condition, police said.
All four are Juarez students, fire department spokesman Larry Langford told the Tribune.
This is at least the third shooting to take place during dismissal at a Chicago public high school this school year.
Four students were shot outside Schurz High School in Old Irving Park during the first week of classes in August. Earlier this month, a 15-year-old student was killed outside Michele Clark Magnet High School on the Near West Side.
