Lincoln Police took a 15-year old male into custody following a shooting Wednesday evening at Seacrest Field.
LPD Captain Todd Kocian says following a social media feud between two groups, a mask wearing male exited a vehicle with a handgun and shot towards the vehicle the victim was in. The 17 year old sustained a graze wound to the left side of his head and the vehicle he was in was struck by a bullet.
At approximately 7:30 pm the victim was taken to the hospital by a friend and the injury is not considered life threatening. LPD exercised a search warrant at the suspect’s residence and because a firearm was involved the LPD SWAT team was utilized.
The 15-year old was lodged in the Lancaster County Youth Service Center and charged with second degree assault, use of a weapon to commit a felony and discharging a firearm into a vehicle.
