Henderson teen hospitalized after shooting
Police are looking for the person responsible for shooting a 15-year-old boy as he walked down a Henderson street Sunday afternoon.
Posted — UpdatedInvestigators said the teen, identified as Sandtonio Knott Jr., and two other teens were walking on the sidewalk on East Rock Spring Street at about 1:15 p.m. when the shooting occurred.
Witnesses reported hearing four or five gunshots and then saw Knott fall to the ground and yell for help.
