15-Year-Old Shot And Critically Wounded In Late Night Bar Fight

What the hell is your 15-year-old doing in a bar at 2:30am? On a school night?

A 15-year-old boy was shot and critically wounded early today during a dispute inside a bar in North Philadelphia, police said.

Police said the youth got into an argument with a young man about 2:30 a.m. inside the El Callejon II bar at North Second Street and West Indiana Avenue in the Fairhill section.

The older male grabbed the victim by the shirt and shot him once in the chest, police said. The gunman fled as bar patrons scattered.

Someone drove the wounded teen to his home and police were called there, officials said.

The youth was taken to Temple University Hospital in critical condition.

The nature of the argument and what the boy was doing in the bar at that hour are not yet known.

Police were looking for a Hispanic male, 19 to 20 years old, 5-feet 5-inches to 5-feet 6-inches tall, with a thin build. He was clean shaven and wearing an orange jacket, light blue jeans and a black baseball cap.

SMH. We want to hear what the parents have to tell Philly D.H.S. when they show up.
