A teenager was shot Thursday afternoon while walking with two friends along Hill Street in an incident that began as an argument with another group and escalated to gunfire.

The shooting occurred at 4:07 p.m. as the teenagers walked west on Hill Street near Pepper Street, San Bernardino police said. Three juveniles in a white or silver Honda pulled up, argued with them and then opened fire.

The injured teen’s friends took him to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton.

His injuries were not life threatening, police said.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call 909-384-5656.
