San Jose: Teenager shot in chest during argument

Police have not made any arrests in shooting near Berryessa Road and Lundy Avenue

SAN JOSE – San Jose police are investigating a shooting that sent a 15-year-old boy to the hospital Wednesday night.

Officers were called to the 900 block of Lundy Avenue, near Berryessa Road, shortly before 8 p.m. for a report of a shooting, said Sgt. Enrique Garcia. They arrived to find a juvenile with a gunshot wound and a man with a graze wound.

Garcia said the juvenile was taken to an area hospital to be treated for his injuries, which were not considered life-threatening. The man was treated at the scene and released.

Police have not arrested anyone in connection with the shooting, which Garcia said remains under investigation.

A woman who identified herself as the younger victim’s mother said her 15-year-old and 19-year-old sons got into an argument with an adult neighbor just prior to the shooting.

“I just heard two shots and looked outside,” said the woman, who gave her first name as Shay. “Both of my sons were walking right here and my younger son didn’t even know he was shot.”

She said her son was hit right above the heart.

“They’ve got him at the hospital right now,” she said, fighting back tears. “He’s talking.”
