Detroit police: 2 teens recovering from gunshot wounds

DETROIT – Detroit police are trying to figure out who fired the shots that wounded two teenagers Wednesday night.

Sources said the 13-year-old and 15-year-old were at the same house on Clippert Street before they were shot.

Detroit police said they are getting different stories from the teenagers as to where the gunfire came from.

Witness Juan Amaya lives across the street from the house in question and heard the gunshots.  

"I thought they were just fooling around, but apparently not," Amaya said. "My side of the house has been shot at a few times from people just shooting. I got a few bullet holes that I just patch up. It's a routine. You're just hoping you don't get hit."

Local 4 spoke to the mother of the 13-year-old. She declined an on-camera interview but said her son has already been released from the hospital.
