A 16-year-old employee at a 7th Aldermanic District Burger King restaurant was shot and killed during an apparent robbery last night near N. 51st St. and W. Capitol Dr.
My heart goes out to the loved ones and friends of the young female victim, who was just working her job when a gunman decided to shoot. I offer my condolences, and pray for comfort for her family during what is undoubtedly a time of extreme pain and sorrow.
