The condition of a 14-year-old schoolboy who received a bullet wound in Lviv is serious.

This was reported by doctors to TSN correspondents.

Doctors fought all night for the life of the wounded man - the boy had his injured lung sewn up and two ribs removed. His condition is severe but stable. Now the teenager is in a medical sleep on mechanical ventilation.

"Everyone who was on shift that day, everyone was engaged in stabilizing his condition and treating him, this is a very serious, critically difficult patient. We are glad that the patient spent the first day, for the fact that he is alive," says Halyna Kurylo, doctor at the St. Nicholas Children's Hospital.

It all happened the day before, when three schoolchildren after school went home to one of the guys, found a pump-action shotgun and shot it. One of the students was injured. Law enforcement officers are investigating all the circumstances, they seized a gun and opened criminal proceedings for negligent possession of weapons.
