14-year-old boy shot by another teen while playing with gun, police say

A 33-year-old man was shot several times outside his ex-girlfriend’s house in East Germantown early Thursday morning, investigators said. Police responded to multiple 911 calls around 1:30 a.m. to the intersection of Wister Street and Church Lane.

“There were six spent shell casings,” said Chief Inspector Scott Small. “All six of the spent shell casings were just a few inches or a few feet from the victim’s body, so clearly, the shooter or shooters were standing very close to this victim.”

The man is in a critical condition at the hospital. 

Investigators have not yet determined a motive for the shooting, and no one is in custody. Small said the victim was known to stay at his ex-girlfriend’s house. Police are looking through surveillance video to figure out what happened.

Man shot multiple times outside ex-girlfriend’s house in East Germantown

In northern Mexico, at least nine people were killed and 60 people were injured in a stage collapse during a campaign rally. A strong gust of wind knocked everything over during an event that was attended by a presidential longshot candidate.

Videos of the dramatic collapse posted to social media last night show people screaming and running away and then climbing out from under metal poles. Mexico's current president says he's sending a "hug" to all who were injured.

Campaign season in Mexico has been plagued by the killings of about two dozen candidates. A mayoral candidate and five other people were killed just last week when gunmen opened fire at a campaign rally in southern Mexico.
