"Paramedics arrived on scene to find that local security officers had rushed the child to a nearby clinic with a gunshot wound to her lower limbs," says
"However, the paramedics have left the scene as it is not safe, and multiple gunshots are currently going off. So, until the scene is safe, paramedics will stand by."
This is a developing story.
