Sexton High School student shootings shake quiet Lansing neighborhood, anger mayor and police chief

LANSING — A quiet afternoon turned chaotic as three Sexton High School students were caught in an apparent ambush just before 3 p.m. on Tuesday, three blocks from the school.

What neighbors initially thought were fireworks turned out to be gunshots. Some saw two of the shooters hiding behind houses with guns at the ready for the victims, including one with a shotgun.

"One of them was hiding behind the house next door" lying in wait in a neighbor's driveway, said a resident who withheld his name out of fear of retaliation. "All of a sudden, they're in the back of my house and I hear something that sounds like firecrackers, but then more rounds started going off and I knew it was a gun."

The three victims - two males, ages 14 and 15, and a 17-year-old girl - were taken to Sparrow Hospital and treated for non-life threatening injuries, Lansing police said during a press conference. A fourth victim came to the hospital with a gunshot wound but it is unclear whether he is connected to the shooting.
