RAPID CITY (AP) – Law enforcement officers are looking for a 14-year-old boy who they say was involved in a shooting in Rapid City.
Police spokesman Brendyn Medina said officers want to know whether the boy was the shooter or a witness to the incident last week.
The victim, another teenager, was taken to the hospital with serious injuries after being shot late Thursday night or early Friday morning.
A Special Response Team went to a Rapid City home Sunday after learning the boy may have been inside.
The team's commander, Tony Harrison, defended the decision to bring the unit to the home with its military-style vehicles and other equipment used in high-risk situations.
Harrison says because there was a firearm involved and someone was seriously hurt, they needed the right tools to deal with a person involved in the incident.
Harrison said officers eventually went into the home but the boy wasn't there.
