"Most of the shots were targeted on the passenger side, however, the driver of the vehicle that was shot - a male juvenile - was struck in the back by one of the bullets," Lt. Ignacio Izaguirre said. Investigators shut down all lanes of the North Loop for hours as they collected evidence in the shooting. The freeway has since reopened.
