Police: 3 teenagers shot, wounded during block party in Kenosha



KENOSHA -- Kenosha police say three people -- teenagers under the age of 18 -- were shot and wounded late Saturday, July 30th.

Police say it happened shortly before 11:00 p.m. near 58th Street and 19th Avenue.

Police tell FOX6 News the area was blocked off for a block party, and all three shooting victims were apparently attending that block party.

"I saw a bunch of police cars coming down 60th -- coming down 14th. I was scared for my life because I didn't know what was going on. I'm walking down the street -- anything can happen to me. If someone's shooting over here, they can be shooting down there. None of this should be going down in America. This shouldn't be happening here," Nicole Jenkins said.

The victims suffered non-life threatening injuries. By Sunday, two had already been treated and released.

We're told this shooting was possibly gang-related, and Kenosha PD's "Gang Unit" is investigating.

"Who's to say what may happen later today? I don't know. Like I said, it's getting worse. I keep to myself. I don't bother nobody," a neighbor said.

"I have a young son and I don't like this gang violence or whatever it is. They were checking houses for bullets and I was here with my grand babies and I'm glad no shot came firing over at my house," a neighbor said.

Multiple suspects are being sough in this case. No one is currently in custody.
