Students returned to classes Thursday at Ulysses S. Grant High School a day after a classmate was injured in what appears to be a drive-by shooting.
"I was in one of the classrooms at the other side of the school, and I was with one of my counselors," she said."So we just hid."
Details about the severity of the victim's injuries were not available, but authorities said his condition is stable. LAUSD's Superintendent and School Board President issued a joint statement, saying,"Our student is currently in stable condition and receiving treatment at a nearby hospital. It's a sad day when our children are exposed to community violence.""This incident is believed to be gang related," the LAPD tweeted Wednesday.
