Five teenagers were playing inside a vehicle while driving with Orby Guns — a toy gun that shoots water beads — when an unknown person inside another car arrived and opened fire on them, SAPD said. The teenagers drove off after the shooting toward the intersection of East Commerce Street and North Swiss Street until they got the attention of an SAPD officer, authorities said.

Two of the teenagers were shot in the upper body, according to police. SAPD said they were both transported to a local hospital. Police said the two teenagers possibly face life-threatening injuries with a gunshot wound to the upper body, but their official condition is unknown.Copyright 2024 by KSAT - All rights reserved.Spencer Heath is a Digital Journalist at KSAT.
