So sad. School shooting close to home today.

There was a shooting in Huntsville, Alabama at Discovery School. A 9th grader pulled out a gun and shot another 9th grader. The boy that was shot was rushed to the hospital and was in critical condition. I just found out an hour ago that the boy has died. It was said that it was thought to be gang related. It is so sad for stuff like this to be happening all around us. There is now a family that was having a normal day that now is probably totally devastated because their child was shot and is dead. And there is another family that was having a normal day and do not know the fate of their child and now have to live with the fact that their child is a murderer. They may also lose their child so to say because he may go to jail. I do not know the exact age of either one of them but I am guessing since they were in the 9th grade that they were between 14 and 16 just depending on the circumstances. Please keep both of these families in your prayers.
