SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — Two minors were arrested after a shooting in South Sacramento this week, police said Wednesday.

According to the Sacramento Police Department, officers responded to the area of Florin Road and 24th Street at around 4:30 p.m. Tuesday following several reports from the community regarding a shooting that had just taken place. Callers stated multiple people had been shot.

Officers located one minor with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the foot, and he was later transported to the hospital for treatment.
