PETERSBURG, Va. -- Six-year-old Ja'den Briggs returned to his Petersburg home after spending 11 days in the hospital.
Briggs was one of two children hurt in a May 22 drive-by shooting in the Pecan Acres community.
“I’m happy, I’m more than happy. He’s OK. He’s home. I couldn’t ask for more," Ja’den's mother Varkeya Fields said.
A five-year-old girl grazed by a bullet fired into a crowd of people at Pecan Acres did not have to be hospitalized, according to her family. Briggs was not as lucky. He had to have surgeries to repair damage to his intestines.
