Two kids got access to a gun at a West Side townhome, and one of them was grazed in the neck by a bullet, sending them to the hospital, according to the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies were initially called for a shooting involving two children. When they arrived, they found one of the kids, a 9-year-old, had been grazed by a bullet on their neck.
The child who was injured was taken by EMS to an area hospital out of precaution. The child’s injuries are not life-threatening, according to BCSO. The 11-year-old was uninjured. Authorities are still working to learn who shot the gun. The firearm was loaded and not secured before the children got access, BCSO said.
The children are not related. Deputies said it’s likely whoever allowed the children access to the gun will be facing charges. “This is a prime example why we can’t make weapons accessible to children, why we have to keep them locked and secured at all times,” a sergeant with BCSO said. “There’s a great possibility that somebody is going to be facing charges if we find out who made the gun accessible to the children.”Copyright 2023 by KSAT - All rights reserved.
