The boy, who is from Chicago but whose name was not available, was charged with three counts of attempted murder and one count of possessing a gun with a defaced serial number, said Officer Veejay Zala, a Chicago Police Department spokesman.
The charges stem from an incident that happened about 3 p.m. Sunday on the 4600 block of North Kenmore Avenue, police said.
According to police, the teen was running away from police when the boy turned and fired his weapon at the officer.
No one was injured.
