Shot Kansas City Teen Walks at Brain Injury Event
Ralph Yarl, the Kansas City teenager who was shot in the head last month after mistakenly ringing the wrong doorbell, made his first major public appearance since the shooting on Monday. Yarl, now 17, walked with family, friends and other brain injury survivors at Going the Distance for Brain Injury, an annual Memorial Day race held at Loose Park in Kansas City, Missouri. Yarl’s mother urged the community to stop gun violence. Andrew Lester, the 84-year-old homeowner, is accused of shooting Yarl.
