Two 15-year-old boys were shot by police this evening in the Roseland area, authorities said.

Patrick Camden, a spokesman for the Fraternal Order of Police union that represents rank-and-file officers, said the shooting happened when the driver of a car police had stopped tried to pull away, dragging a passenger that tried to escape the back seat. 

Police suspected the car was stolen and stopped it about 5 p.m. near 95th and LaSalle streets.
