Authorities on Tuesday said court intake staff and police did not follow proper procedures after a weekend shooting at City Foundry STL involving teenagers. The teens were released to their parents.

"Procedures by the St. Louis City Family Court's intake staff and the city police weren't followed," said Joel Currier, of the 22nd Judicial Circuit Court.
