Around 3 p.m. on Saturday, police say the 30-year-old suspect pulled up onto Mark Twain Street and opened fire on the 15-year-old victim.
“From what we know, it was just a verbal altercation that led to a shooting," said Captain Dunbar.
Police say the suspect in the shooting barricaded himself inside a house on Saturday.
And on Friday, two 13-year-old boys were shot. One died and was injured on the city's east side.

“When I was 13 years old, all I wanted to play and it’s just sad to me that our kids can’t be safe in our own communities," said neighbor Sabre Johnson.
Johnson lives a block from where the shooting happened on Friday night.
“I came home, I was going to get in the shower, heard the shots, then I spun the block to see what was going on," Johnson said.
According to Detroit Police in regards to the Friday shooting, three teens were out walking and a dark-colored vehicle pulled up near them, words were exchanged, and then shots rang out.
“I’m praying for that mother, like I said hearing her scream like that is I don’t wish that on my worst enemy.”
While police believe they have their suspect in the shooting, they are still looking for a suspect in the shooting of the two 13-year-olds. If you have any information, reach out to Detroit Police.
