Eight boys between the ages of fourteen and eighteen were shot Friday night after leaving a skating rink. The boys were not believed to have life threatening injuries but several remained in the hospital.

The shooting occurred in Gary, Indiana, which is about 30 miles from Chicago. The teens were attending a concert at the World of Skaters roller rink and may have been involved in a fight that started at the concert. The boys claim to have no idea why somebody would open fire on them. Police speculate the fight may have been instigated by the concert hype-man when he asked the groups to divide into East-side and West-side.

World of Skaters manager James Sisson was in the crowd when the shooting began. He had already broken up a fight in the venue as acting head of security. It is unclear if the fight that happened during the concert is related to the shooting.

There were more than 200 kids outside the roller rink when the shooting began. Police are not certain of the exact number of shooters, nor do they have any leads.

The roller rink has been closed temporarily for the weekend and has suspended any events that were aimed at those under the age of 21.
