A 7-year-old student at Disney Magnet School suffered a graze wound after a gun went off in a backpack in a classroom, Chicago police said.
Parents and caregivers of Disney Magnet School students began rushing to the campus off DuSable Lake Shore Drive at Montrose after word got out.
Chicago police say the incident happened just before 10 a.m. Their investigation revealed"the weapon accidentally discharged in the backpack while inside a classroom, with a bullet striking the ground and ricocheting, resulting in a classmate being grazed in the abdomen. That student was taken to Lurie Children's Hospital in good condition.""My son is 7 as well," said Leslie, who didn't want to share her last name."It is very worrisome.
"It is like a village: parents, school, teachers," said Vania McFadden, who has a 7-year-old at the school."It takes all of us to help these young kids nowadays because it is different growing up in Chicago.""'Someone brought a gun,' she texted me, and I came flying," Uribe said."I wasn't going to text her because if she had to hide, I didn't want her doing that. So I said, 'Stop texting me' and so I came here.
"We are freaking out, yeah, we're freaking out right now," Garcia said."I don't know, the thing about guns, yesterday, the weekend... Gun shootings going all over the country. This is crazy."
