Damn. He was just taking a piano lesson.

Christopher Rodriguez, a 10 year old boy from Oakland, will probably be paralyzed for life after being hit by a criminal's stray bullet. He was in the middle of a piano lesson when the bullet penetrated the window near where he was seated.

This kid loved music: he played African drums, listened to classical music...was learning the piano. His family is putting off telling him that he is paralyzed - hoping that he can heal a bit before receiving the news. And maybe, with stem cell research, this kid can get his life back. But for now, here is the story of what happened to him: http://www.insidebayarea.com/oaklandtribune/ci_7975615

Love and quick healing from Citizen Reindeer, Christopher. We're pissed too.
