A CPD spokesman said a “shooting incident” happened at the game, but no other details were released, including whether anyone was injured.
Two people were injured, a law enforcement source told the Sun-Times, and one was hospitalized, but no details on the extent of their injuries were available.
Fans told reporters outside the ballpark the shooting happened around the third inning, then security cleared people out of the section and the game continued.
