Man, 15-year-old arrested in shooting of nine children at gas station

COLUMBUS, Ga. — Two people, including a teenager, have been arrested and charged in connection with the shooting of nine children at a Georgia gas station last week.

Columbus police were called to a Shell gas station just after 10 p.m. on Feb. 17 where they found nine juveniles suffering from gunshot wounds.

All nine victims, which included a 5-year-old boy, were taken to local hospitals with non-life threatening injuries.

Officers have now arrested D’Angelo Robinson Sr., 35, and a 15-year-old boy for the shootings. The teenage suspect’s identity has not been released because he is a juvenile.

Robinson is facing eight counts of aggravated assault and the teen is facing one count of aggravated assault.

Investigators also say the 15-year-old is a known gang member.

Officials say more charges are expected.
