Summary

A shooting erupted Thursday night in Plainfield’s southwest suburbs, leaving a 16-year-old critically injured. Paramedics treated him at a fire station before transferring him to hospitals for further care—his condition remains uncertain. Police have identified an 18-year-old as a suspect and executed a search warrant on a nearby home, though no arrests have been made. Authorities believe this was a targeted attack, not random, and assure the public there’s no immediate threat. If you have information, contact Detective Sergeant Ron Mikos at 815-267-7237.
