10-year old shot in head during wedding celebration in Nablus

Palestine Press Agency reports that a child and a young man were injured by celebratory gunfire in a wedding ceremony in Nablus Wednesday.

A ten-year old child was shot in the head with injuries described as serious. He was transferred to the Rafidia hospital.

The other victim, a young man, was shot in the foot.

The Palestinian Center for Human Rights used to routinely track incidents like this under the category of "misuse of weapons" but I haven't seen any such reports in a number of years.

(A young man was killed in Hebron during his brother's wedding on Friday night, but not from gunshots - revelers dropped him to the ground while carrying him and he fell on his head.)
