APOPKA, Fla. (AP) — Police say an 11-year-old boy retrieved a gun from an unlocked box in his mother’s vehicle and shot two 13-year-olds following an altercation that began during a Pop Warner football practice in central Florida. Apopka police Chief Mike McKinley says the child fired one shot on Monday night, hitting one teen in the arm and the other in the torso.
