Paralyzed Oklahoma teen headed home after shooting

Posted: Updated:

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - An Oklahoma teenager who was shot while walking to the bus is heading home after spending more than six weeks in the hospital.

Bronson Quickle is paralyzed from the waist down after the May 8 shooting. The 17-year-old has been hospitalized since the shooting and has undergone several surgeries.

Oklahoma City television station KOCO reports that Quickle is being released Friday from the hospital.

Oklahoma City police say a gunman shot Quickle in the chest and beat another teenager with a gun.

Quickle's mother, Tami Jackson, says she grateful that her son is still alive but angry that no one has been arrested yet for the shooting.
