FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- An investigation is underway after police say a 15-year-old was shot in southeast Fresno.

Police say the 15-year-old was shot multiple times in the leg and side. He was taken to Community Regional Medical Center and is expected to survive.

Greenberg Elementary School was placed on lockdown due to the location of the shooting, but it has since been lifted.

Officers believe the shooting was targeted.

Fresno Unified released a statement, saying:

"We cannot go into details about the incident that prompted this morning's lockdown at Greenberg Elementary because it is an active investigation, but we want to assure the community there was never any danger to anyone on the campus. Officers did a sweep of the school to ensure it was all clear. This was a lengthy process as they checked every building on the site before students and staff resumed their daily activities. Their well-being is a top priority, and we have security procedures in place to make sure they stay safe. Our safety team remains onsite, and we have emotional support available for those who need them."
