A Bronx teenager was hospitalized Monday night after being shot in the stomach, police say.

It happened just before 9 p.m. near 177th Street and Walton Avenue in Mount Hope.

A witness says he dialed 911 after the 15-year-old girl ran into his apartment building for help.

"I was listening to music and I heard like 11 gunshots and then I hear a girl screaming and then she came in here," said Bronx resident Emmanuel Rodriguez.

Police say the girl was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital.

The investigation is ongoing.
