Graduates and guests were exiting the stadium when shots were fired.
The Gary Community School Corporation released the following statement from manager Dr. Page McNulty:
"A day that was meant for celebration has now been marked by tragedy through senseless acts of gun violence. During the entire graduation, our students conducted themselves in an excellent manner. Meanwhile, the disruptive actions of a few overshadowed their special moment. Thankfully, the offenders have been apprehended, but it doesn't change the hurt and disappointment our students, families and school community are now feeling. Our prayers are with those injured, and we continue to extend our congratulations to WSLA graduates. They deserve it."
Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Sergeant Nielsen at 881-1210 or the Crime Tip Line at CRIME-GP.
