Chicago police released a photo of a person of interest wanted in the fatal shooting of 14-year-old Armani Floyd in the Loop on Friday night. 

Floyd was killed, and eight others were wounded in a pair of shootings, just hours after Chicago lit the city's official Christmas tree just blocks away in Millennium Park. City officials said social media posts circulated about a large teen gathering.  

The photo from police shows a man wearing a gray jacket, a purple Nike tracksuit, and black Air Force Ones. It appears the image was captured from an officer's worn camera. 

1 dead, 8 wounded in 2 downtown shootings 

The first shooting happened around 9:50 p.m. Friday, when seven teens were shot outside the Chicago Theatre, in the 100 block of North State Street. All seven victims were taken to hospitals in good or fair condition.

Around 10:40 p.m., two more teens were shot near Dearborn and Adams streets, a few blocks away. Armani Floyd, 14, was shot multiple times and was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. An 18-year-old man was also shot in the leg and was taken to Northwestern in serious condition.

Amari was part of Project sWISH Chicago, a nonprofit basketball program for teens. Project sWISH founder and basketball coach McKinley Nelson said he's not sure what led to Amari's death, but he was shocked to hear the news.
