While the officers were investigating, they learned a 16-year-old boy showed up at Children’s with a gunshot wound. His injuries aren’t life threatening either, Fitzgerald said. Thursday’s shooting was the second time this year that gunfire in Collegeville has left a child injured.The dozens of rounds were fired from multiple shooters. Investigators said they recovered spent shell casings from both handguns and rifles.The April shooting happened in the 3000 block of 29th Avenue North.
