A teenage boy was shot and killed Sunday afternoon while driving in a car just outside Riverside.
The boy, whose name and age were not released, was a passenger in a Toyota Camry on Van Buren Boulevard and Jurupa Avenue, said Juan Zamora, spokesman for the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.
A car pulled up next to the Camry and someone in the car opened fire, hitting the youth.
The Camry driver went to a parking lot of a shopping center and called paramedics, who pronounced the boy dead.
“We believe there are witnesses because this was a busy street,” Zamora said.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call (951) 955-2600.
