Two People Shot In Parking Lot Of North Aurora Woodman's

NORTH AURORA, Ill. - Two people were shot and injured in the parking lot of a Woodman's grocery store in the western suburbs on Tuesday evening.

According to a statement from North Aurora police, two male victims were shot while sitting inside their vehicle at approximately 6:30 p.m., causing both of them to be hospitalized. Police did not have an official motive for the shooting, but stated that they believe it could have been the result of a bad drug deal, and was likely a targeted attack.

"From what we can tell, this was some type of drug-related offense, but we don't know for sure," North Aurora Police Chief David Fisher said in a statement. Bill Leonard, an employee at the Woodman's store, told NBC 5 that "at first I thought it was a popped tire, but by the second shot my friend and I knew those were gunshots."

The police also said that at least three suspects are being questioned in connection with the shooting. Anyone with information should contact the North Aurora Police Department at (630)-897-8705.
