And then Leslie saw Ryland, who clung to the Church. Now the boy already had surgery in San Antonio. From his body pulled out a few bullets.
According to uncle of the child, Michael ward, father of the children ran to Church without wearing shoes, when she heard about the incident. Now the man is in a state of shock after the death of almost the entire family.
