Ralph Yarl , 16, has been released from the hospital four days after being shot, and will continue to recover at home.
He was shot twice through glass at the front of the house in Kansas City, just a block away from the property his twin brothers were waiting to be picked up from. He reportedly pulled into the driveway of the home at 10pm on April 13, rang the doorbell, and was immediately shot in the head by the homeowner.
But his family have confirmed that he has been released from the hospital four days after being shot, and will continue to recover at home.
Police have not yet officially identified the shooter, but Kansas City Police Department detention unit confirmed to CNN that a white man in his 80s with an address matching the property where the incident occurred was taken into custody and later released. They also confirmed he was taken into custody on April 13 just before midnight and was released less than two hours later at 1:24 a.m. on April 14.
Clay County Prosecutor Zachary Thompson said his office has not yet received a criminal referral from the Kansas City Police Department to present charges for this case. However, the prosecutor said his office is working with police to speed the process up so they can review the case and determine if charges are appropriate.
