AURORA | Police say a boy is in custody after he opened fire on a police car Monday evening in north Aurora while an officer and a young girl were seated inside.
The incident happened at about 11:30 p.m. Monday near the Friendly Village Mobile Home Park in the 1800 block of Eisenhower Way, police said.
An officer investigating a separate case — details of which were not released — said he was speaking to a girl seated in his police car.
While the officer was talking to the girl, the boy approached and opened fire on the police cruiser. Police said neither the officer nor the girl were hurt.
A short time later, police arrested the boy nearby and he was later charged with attempted first-degree murder and possession of a handgun by a juvenile.
Police described the boy only as a juvenile, but did not release his name or age.
