Teen arrested after allegedly firing gun at unmarked Kenosha police vehicle
KENOSHA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Officers say a 17-year-old boy was arrested Wednesday, Dec. 21, after firing a gun at an unmarked Kenosha police vehicle.
Members of the Special Investigations Unit were on patrol near 66th Street and 23rd Avenue just after 1 p.m. when they spotted several people cutting through yards. The officers suspected criminal activity and monitored the group from their vehicle.
Police say as the group cut through yards and entered an alleyway, one of the individuals pointed and fired a gun at the Kenosha police officers' unmarked vehicle.
A single officer returned fire. Officers say no one was struck in the exchange.
A foot pursuit ensued, and Kenosha police officers detained three people.
Police say the 17-year-old boy will make an initial appearance Thursday, with charges to be determined by the Kenosha County district attorney.
The other two people who were arrested have been released.
