Shots fired at teens over weekend on West Side, no injuries

YOUNGSTOWN — No one was injured after a group of juveniles said someone fired several shots at them late Saturday evening as they walked through the back parking lot of a bar in the 700 block of Steel Street.

Reports said officers were finishing up a call on a nearby street about 10:40 p.m. when they heard several gunshots from the area of Steel Street. They went to check out the shooting, and found three teens hiding behind a trash receptacle. The three said they were hiding because as they cut through the parking lot a man who was outside was upset they were running and fired several shots.

The bar owner told police he also heard the shots and customers went inside for safety. No one was injured.
