"The juvenile was transported to Cheyenne Regional Medical Center by ambulance where he was pronounced dead," Farkas added.
Lt. Rob Dafoe says there were a number of people in the area when the shooting occurred, but nobody else was injured.
He says officers have been working around-the-clock on the case, but as of Tuesday morning, they didn't have a suspect.
"We have some people of interest, that's about as much as I can tell you," said Dafoe. "Obviously, it's a very involved investigation."
