Doctors call victims of New Mexico library shooting heroes
Alexis Molina took a bullet to the chest, just above her heart, and was shot once in each leg as a gunman opened fire inside public library in New Mexico, but trauma surgeons at the Texas hospital where she is recovering said Thursday that all she could think about was making sure her little brother was safe.
The doctors told reporters that Molina, 20, is expected to make a full recovery, and they described her and fellow library patron Howard Jones as heroes.
Jones, who was at the library with his granddaughter, was shot in the arm. The bullet traveled from his forearm along his radial nerve before lodging in the back of his arm, the doctors said.
