A teenager was dropped off at a hospital with a life-threatening injury after a shooting early Wednesday morning in Temple.
The shooting happened just before 1 a.m. in the 1900 block of South 5th Street near West Avenue R.
Lt. Brad Hunt says multiple people were standing in the driveway of a house in that block when someone fired a gun several times.
A 17-year-old boy was shot in the leg.
Hunt says the teen was either carried by someone or he walked himself from the house to a car across the block on W Avenue T. He was then dropped off at Scott and White Memorial Hospital, where he had to undergo surgery.
He lost a lot of blood, Hunt said.
The suspect or suspects have not been found.
Contact the Temple Police Department at 254-298-5500 or the Bell County Crime Stoppers at 254-526-TIPS if you have any information that could help police.
