Teen found inside vehicle suffering from gunshot wounds

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Police in Mississippi say a teenager has been found inside his vehicle suffering from several gunshot wounds.

News outlets report that officers found the 19-year-old man inside a car that was riddled with bullets on Tuesday. Jackson police spokesman Sgt. Roderick Holmes says officers were called to the shooting just after 1 p.m.

The unidentified teenager was taken to an area hospital, where he is listed in critical condition.
