An 8-year-old boy who was shot in the head in a mass shooting at a Michigan splash pad is making “amazing progress” in his recovery, the local sheriff said.
The 8-year-old, his 4-year-old brother and their mother were among nine people shot at the Brooklands Plaza splash pad in Rochester Hills on Saturday, according to officials.
The suspect, Michael William Nash, allegedly fired 36 shots before fleeing the scene and then dying by suicide at his home, authorities said.
The 8-year-old boy and his mother, 39, remain in critical condition, Oakland County Sheriff Mike Bouchard said at a news conference Monday.
The 4-year-old brother was shot in the thigh and is in stable condition, the sheriff said.
The sheriff said he met with the family, noting that out of their family of four, three are in the hospital.
