Police still investigating teenage boy’s shooting
Police are still investigating where a teenage boy got a firearm from after he shot his school mate in a bus.
Police could still not confirm the origin of a firearm after a teenage boy shot his school mate in a bus last week.
Spokesperson Mirna Von Benecke said the two boys, both aged 15, were in a school bus when the gun went off. She said this happened on the corners of Lavender and Linvelt roads in Sinoville last Thursday.
The teenage boy was hit in both legs and rushed to hospital. Von Benecke could not confirm his current condition.
“The other boy was arrested that night and was released into his parents’ custody. He will appear in court soon,” she said.
Detectives are still investigating where the pupil got the gun from. “A case of attempted murder was opened.”
