ROANOKE, Va. — Authorities say a student was injured in a shooting outside a Roanoke arena before a high school graduation practice Wednesday afternoon.
News outlets report that the teenage boy was shot outside Berglund Center before practice began for William Fleming High School’s graduation.
Police say they believe the shooting happened in the parking lot and the teen ran inside. No one has been arrested.
