It was the teenager's first public outing since he was shot after ringing a wrong doorbell in April.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Ralph Yarl, the Missouri teenager shot in the head after ringing a wrong doorbell, made his first public appearance on Memorial Day, as he walked to support a nonprofit that helps people with brain injuries.
Yarl continues working on his recovery. His mother says she walks with him two to three miles every other day, so she wasn’t worried about the walk. But she said the event was still challenging for him. Nearly 21,000 people in the Kansas City region are impacted annually by a brain injury, according to the Brain Injury Association. The Memorial Day run is a fundraiser for those recovering from brain injuries and their families.
