A 15-year-old boy suffered a graze wound during a shooting Friday afternoon in the South Loop.

About 4:35 p.m., the boy was grazed in the back while riding in a vehicle in the 2400 block of South Michigan Avenue, according to Chicago Police.

The shots were fired during an argument between people in two separate vehicles, police said. The boy was a passenger in a third vehicle and was not involved in the argument.

He was taken to Mercy Hospital in good condition, police said.
