JAKARTA - An unfortunate fate befell a boy with the initials IA (11). He became a victim of a stray bullet while playing at Pademangan, North Jakarta, Tuesday 17 June.

At first, IA was playing with her friends. Suddenly the victim feels pain in his back like someone is tapping or pinching.

Without thinking anything, IA ignores it. Until finally, the victim went home and began to feel pain. Here he noticed a wound on his back.

Then, IA told his parents. The next day IA was taken by her parents to the hospital. There he was examined and found a projectile lodged in his back.

The hospital initially referred to the National Police Hospital, Kramat Jati. Then, the doctor took steps to remove the projectile.

North Jakarta Metro Police Chief, Kombes Budhi Herdi Susianto said, after the projectiles were appointed from IA, the family immediately reported the case.

However, the police did not know for sure the type of projectile. This is because the projectiles are still being examined at the Forensic Laboratory (Labfor).

"It is not yet known (the type of projectile, red). We are still waiting for the ballistic test results," said Budhi, Tuesday, June 23.

The ballistic test is a way to find out the motion, properties and effects of a bullet projectile. So, by using this method it can be seen the type of firearm used.

Budhi emphasized that there was only one projectile lodged in the victim's body. In addition, the injuries caused were not too severe. In fact, currently the victim's condition has improved after the projectile removal.

"It's getting better. Already returned from the hospital," said Budhi.

Meanwhile, whether there are any police activities in the area cannot be answered. Because, this is still in the process of being investigated.

Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit of the North Jakarta Metro Police, Kompol Wirdhanto Hadicaksono said that investigators are currently investigating this case by seeking information or other clues.

Then, the investigation will continue while awaiting the ballistic test results of the projectile. "While still being investigated," he said.
