Darien police still searching for Wal-Mart shooter

Darien police are still searching for a man who shot and wounded another man after a fight Thursday evening in a Darien Wal-Mart, authorities said Friday.

Deputy Chief John Cooper said police are following up on "some pretty solid leads" that developed from interviewing shoppers who witnessed the shooting and watching store surveillance footage.

Police said the shooting, inside the store at 2189 75th St., was not a random act.

Three to five shots were fired just before 5:40 p.m. and the victim was hit in the shoulder, police said. The injuries were not believed to be life-threatening. Police said he is in stable condition at Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove.

"There was some type of altercation or argument inside the store between the person that was shot and the person that did the shooting, and that's about as much as I know," Chief Greg Thomas told ABC 7 Chicago late Thursday.

The shooter fled the scene. Nobody else was injured.

A witness inside the store told ABC 7 she heard a loud "pop" in the store's market area from where she was standing in the customer service line.

"Then I heard pop, pop, pop, and somebody said, 'That's a gun,'" the witness said. She ran from the store uninjured.
