While officers were responding, they were told multiple victims had arrived at Methodist Northlake Hospital. Six people self-transported to the hospital, and their conditions were not immediately known.

Minutes later, around 12:49 a.m., officers started heading to the 200-block of Chase Street, about 4 miles away from the first scene, for a report of a gunshot victim. While on their way, officers learned that a 10-year-old boy and a 50-year-old man had been shot and went to Methodist Northlake Hospital.

The 10-year-old boy was pronounced dead at the hospital. The Lake County, Indiana Coroner’s Office identified him as Montana Weathers, of Chicago.

The 50-year-old man was transported to another Chicago-area hospital, where he remains in critical condition.
