OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — A 16-year-old boy was injured in a shooting late Tuesday at 79th and Farley streets in Overland Park, police said.
Officers were called to the area shortly before midnight on a report of a male in the street.
The teen had been shot several times, police said. He was transported to an area hospital with non life-threatening injuries.
Police do not believe the incident is related to another shooting that occurred last week less than a quarter-mile away, spokesman John Lacy said. A 17-year-old boy died in that shooting.
