GARRETT – A juvenile boy was shot on Friday, September 15 in Garrett.

Detectives from the Indiana State Police were called early this afternoon to investigate a reported gunshot injury at a residence in the 200 block of West Keyser Street.

Just before 3 p.m. officers found a 15-year-old juvenile male suffering from what appeared to be a single gunshot wound to the leg.
