DETROIT (WXYZ) — A 15-year-old Detroit boy has been charged after shooting two people, including killing another teen and injuring his mother.
These charges stems from an incident that happened last week on Nov. 7. Around 6 p.m. that day, officers responded to the area of Seward Street and Second Avenue for a reported shooting.
Upon arrival, first responders found that both victims had been shot. The 14-year-old victim was transported to the hospital where he died from his injuries. The mother was hospitalized and released upon treatment.
Investigators say that the 14-year-old was shot multiple times in the head, left arm, right hand and left thigh following an argument with the 15-year-old. The mother was also shot in her right arm.
