PHILADELPHIA (AP) - At least
eight school children were injured
yesterday when someone apparently
shot at their school bus as it returned
from an excursion to the Philadelphia
Zoo, a spokeswoman at Paoli Memorial
Hospital said.
The spokeswoman, Dorothy Ander-
son, said one girl, Krista Lang, 12, of
Downingtown, suffered gunshot wounds
of both legs and was undergoing
surgery. Her condition was listed as
guarded.
Anderson said another child, 13, suf-
fered an eye abrasion caused by a
flying object and that another'
youngster had several small puncture
wounds, apparently caused by flying
objects but not gunshots.
The incident occurred on the
Schuylkill Expressway near the
Belmont exit, a few miles west of the
city, Anderson said.
The children were students at
Downingtown Junior High School and
the bus was en route to the school with
45 students on board when the incident
occurred about 1 p.m., she said.
