Doctors in Shanghai have removed nearly 100 pellets from the face of an 8-year-old boy. The boy was reportedly playing with a gun and accidentally hurt himself.
According to Dragon TV, the incident took place on Tuesday afternoon in Anhui Province.
The boy’s mother apparently heard him crying. By the time she got to him, she found that his face was severely damaged and covered in blood.
She immediately called for medical help. However, owing to limited medical facilities in the region, he had to be transferred to Shanghai, a process that took nearly 8 hours.
