Per NBC 5 Chicago, the shooting happened during the fourth inning of the game against the Oakland Athletics. Police initially requested that the game be stopped, but it went on due to the lack of perceived threat.

"We allowed the game to continue not to create a panic," Chicago's Interim Police Supt. Fred Waller said, according to the news outlet.

Initial reports were uncertain if the shooting happened inside or outside the park, but by Monday, police said the notion that the incident happened outside was "almost completely dispelled."

Early Saturday morning, the White Sox released a statement amid the police investigation.
