Police Investigate Shooting

The Naperville Police Department is investigating a shooting that happened yesterday in the 600 block of Amersale Drive in Naperville. At around 2:11 p.m., officers arrived to the area but no one was there. A short time after, the victims of the shooting called 911 and the Aurora Police Department responded to the area of McCoy and Vaughn Drives. Both were wounded. An 18-year-old male from Naperville is in critical condition and a 17-year-old male from Aurora was treated and released at a local hospital. The initial investigation shows the offender and victims agreed to meet to make a transaction and got into an altercation. The offender fled in a dark colored Sedan. He’s described as a black male in his 20’s. Any person or business that has surveillance video in the area is asked to contact the police department. If anyone has additional information, they are asked to call the Naperville Police Department at 630-420-6665 and ask for the investigations division.
