According to the WCSO, on the morning of May 2, deputies responded to a reported shooting on West Cypress Avenue following a 911 call from a mother saying her 11-year-old son had been shot.

The WCSO said its investigation determined the teen knew about the shooting and did not notify law enforcement.
