A 17-year-old boy struck by gunfire in front of a Granada Hills grocery store was with a group of people who had attended a nearby high school football game, police said.
The incident was reported around 9 p.m. Thursday when someone fired multiple rounds at the group as they were in the parking lot of a Ralphs on the 18000 block of Chatsworth Street.
The unidentified victim was struck in the leg and stumbled into the supermarket to get help.
He was taken to a local hospital in stable condition, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department said.
