Mayor speaks out after five children were injured in accidental shooting

MILWAUKEE -- Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett visited Bradley Tech High School to speak with students about gun violence following a shooting that injured five kids.

Police say several people in the basement were handling a shotgun loaded with bird shot when the gun went off. The victims range in age from 11 to 17. Investigators are questioning the people who were in the basement and say they're not getting a lot of cooperation. 

Mayor Barrett says shootings like these underscore the need for adults in this community to act responsibility with their guns. \"If you have a gun you have to have it locked up so children don't have access to it,\" says Barrett.

All five minors shot are expected to recover from their injuries.
