1 Teen Killed, Another Hurt in Shooting
Two teenage shooting victims were dropped off Friday afternoon at the San Clemente General Hospital emergency room, where one died of stomach wounds, authorities said.
An unknown driver brought the two young men to the hospital and immediately left, an Orange County sheriff’s spokesman said. An 18-year-old died, and a 16-year-old was being treated for his injuries. Sheriff’s officials would not release the name of either victim or give details of the younger victim’s condition.
Few other details about the incident were released late Friday, although investigators said they believe it may have been gang-related.
