Officers who searched the alley between Bernard and St. Louis avenues found six shell casings about 100 yards south of Lightfoot’s home, according to a CPD report.
The officers saw a gray four-door sedan leaving the alley immediately after the shots were fired, police spokesperson Sally Bown said. Witnesses reported seeing the vehicle flee westbound on Wrightwood.
No motive is known for the shooting, and there is no indication that the mayor was being targeted.
Detectives are investigating.
