CHICAGO (CBS) — A16-year-old boy has been charged with attempted murder after allegedly shooting at Chicago police officers in Little Village Tuesday night.
Police said around 10:51 p.m., officers responded to a call of a person with a gun, in the 2800 block of West 25th Place, about a block away from the Cook County jail.

<p><strong>Naija News</strong> reports that the action is coming following President Bola Tinubu's directive to the Inspector General of Police (IGP) Kayode Egbetokun, and the National Security Adviser (NSA) Nuhu Ribadu to monitor warehouses hoarding food across the country.</p>
<p>The directive comes as prices of food items continue to skyrocket amid rising inflation.</p>
<p>This news platform had earlier reported that inflation hit 29.90 per cent in January, with food inflation at 35.41.</p>
<p>The continued rise in the prices of food across the country and the worsening economic condition across the country has, however, triggered a series of protests across the country.</p>
