Two Juveniles Injured in Accidental Shootings

A 15-year-old was injured in an accidental shooting in Madison, Wisconsin. Police determined that the people involved in the shooting knew each other and that it was accidental. The victim was reported to be in stable condition.

And in Orcutt, California, a juvenile was seriously injured in what is believed to be a self-inflicted, accidental shooting. The victim was taken to the hospital and expected to recover. The sheriff’s office is continuing to investigate, and will eventually turn over the findings to juvenile probation.
