The young victim was shot several times while walking with a friend, at around 11:30 p.m., along Monroe Street between St. Antoine and Beaubien. Police said her injuries were non-life-threatening.

It was one of two shootings over two days in Greektown — a busy entertainment district known as one of the safest areas of the city.
