13-year old New Orleans boy shot in the knee

A 13-year old boy was walking down a New Orleans, Louisiana street when he was shot and wounded in the knee.

From the article:

Police tell FOX 8 News that the boy was walking down Bundy from Chef Menteur Highway when he passed the perpetrator.  For some reason, the perp fired a gun at the boy, who was wounded behind his left knee.

A friend transported the victim to Lake Forest and Crowder Blvds., where they spotted a police officer around 8:17 p.m.  The office called EMS, which transported the boy to a local hospital.  He was last reported in stable condition.

Investigators have not named a suspect or a motive for the shooting.
