ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Police in Minnesota have detained a 13-year-old girl after a shooting that left a boy hospitalized with a gunshot wound to the head.
Officers responded to the shooting just before 9 p.m. Friday and found the badly wounded boy, according to St. Paul police. He is believed to be 11 years old.
Paramedics rushed him to a hospital with injuries that police described as life threatening.
