Boston Police said they do not have a description of the suspect, but are scouring surveillance video from the area.

The shooting took place in the vicinity of a McDonald's and a shopping plaza.

Police believe the suspect ran through the nearby parking lot to get away.

"I'm in shock. I just can't believe this is happening around here," a woman who lives in the area said.

Anyone with information is asked to call Boston Police.
