Columbus Division of Police Commander Paul Szabo said they believe there was an exchange of gunfire between multiple parties, resulting in the teen being struck.
A large area of multiple spent shell casings, which went down at least three streets, was found at the scene.
The teen was taken to Nationwide Children’s Hospital in critical condition, but has been upgraded to stable condition, said Szabo.
Szabo believes the shooting happened outside, but the teenager was found inside a residence when officers arrived.
At least one house and one car were reportedly hit during the shooting. Officers said they are unsure if that car was used in the shooting.
No one is in custody at this time, and no additional details about a possible suspect were available.
