NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — A rise in violence has students and parents on Staten Island concerned. There have been at least two incidents involving guns, two days in a row at the same school.
Police responded both times to Susan E. Wagner High School in the Willowbrook section of the borough.
On Wednesday, CBS2’s Leah Mishkin spoke to students about the violence.
“It’s just scary, like you hear of other shootings around the country,” senior Julianna Raimonda said.
Exit doors were secured and students had to stay inside the building Monday afternoon after a 16-year-old and a 19-year-old reported being assaulted near the track/football field.
Police said one of the victims was struck with a gun across the face. He was taken to the hospital in stable condition. No arrests have been made in the ongoing investigation.
