Syracuse, NY-a 17-year-old boy was arrested in Syracus on Thursday evening because he had injured two young boys in Syracus.

At 11:29 p.m., the police reacted to the 100 block of the Hoefler Street and found that the boys had been shot, said Kieran Coffey, a spokesman for the Syracuse police.

A 15-year-old boy was shot in the stomach and a 17-year-old boy was shot in his arms, said Coffey. Both boys were brought to the Upstate University Hospital and are in a stable state, he said.

A 17-year-old boy, not the same boy, was arrested, said Coffey.

Patrick Blood, a deputy administrative prosecutor of Onondaga County, said the boy who fired the weapon claims that the shootings were accidental and he does not know that the weapon was loaded. However, reports from witnesses and victims as well as evidence on site are contradictory, he said.

More than a shot was fired, he said.

It is unclear whether an argument before the shootings was happening, said Blood.

The investigation continues, said the prosecutor.

The boy was charged in two attacks in a second degree and two cases of ruthless danger and the criminal possession of a weapon and the criminal property of a firearm, said Blood.

Coffey refused to say whether the shootout took place within a house or outside.

On Thursday evening, police officers took a house on Hoefler Street 118 and were able to go to the house and go out of the house. A police scene was parked in front of the house.

The police asks someone with information about the shootings to call them under (315) 442-5222.
