A 10-year-old boy who was hospitalized in critical condition last week after he was shot during a high school football game in New Jersey has died.

Micah and other spectators were watching the Pleasantville Greyhounds play the Camden Panthers in Pleasantville around 8:30 p.m. on Friday when gunfire erupted, sending the panicked crowd running.

A man, 27, was shot and taken to the hospital in stable condition. Tyner said in a press release Saturday that the man needed surgery."No child deserves to have their promising life cut short, especially by indiscriminate and senseless gun violence," he said in a statement."No parent deserves to bury their child. We will hold [Micah's] memory close, and we will remember his name, as we continue our work to make New Jersey safer for all of our families.
